Those are some of the worst clashes I have ever seen - Cannibal Corpse vs Slayer, Gojira vs Behemoth, Bodom vs Hatebreed? Almost glad I'm not going this year. 

 
 
It's true but I think with the lineup they've got it's pretty much unavoidable, the only real headscratcher for me is why Cannibal Corpse are on the Metal Dome when I think they'd easily fill a marquee - if they weren't up against Slayer anyway.

Getting the train, will have to meet up for a few brews over the weekend

 
Sounds like a plan. I'll drop you a line when it's getting near and we'll arrange something. I think we're prertty much 95% certain now, just a slight possibility that my mate's work could mess things up but hopefully not - in the unlikely event that that happens then I think Hellfest is our reserve option. 

Tickets bought 
 
Also, the Gojira UK dates have solved my worst clash - Behemoth vs Gojira 

The final band is Six Hour Sundown.

Music days look good at least. Hope I can get the tent up before/after the storms because IM ALLOWED TO GO
 
luckily Im not flying so the doctor has said I can go. Wouldnt have let me go on a plane as the pressure on and infected ear can perferate the ear drum
 
So happy 

Good news!
