THE EMPIRE
Recently there was a bit of buzz regarding a post by Pop-Punk band Neck Deep where they said that Warped Tour was coming to New Zealand which people quickly jumped on and got extremely excited about, but just as fast it got corrected and our hopes and dreams were shattered.
Being so far away we don’t get to really experience these big festivals and its at this time of year where the festival season is about to kick off in the UK and Europe. I do understand why we don’t get them as it does cost a shit tonne of money and we just don’t have the population to support it, and even trying to piggy back on some Australian festivals is barely worth it. Especially when the promoter across the ditch turns out to be an utter douche bag that ruins it for everyone else… But that doesn’t mean we cant dream about what festivals we would love to have here.
One that immediately springs to mind for me is Download Festival, just thinking about it makes me cream ma knickers. Every year the line up is absolutely incredible and makes me seriously consider reasons as to why the f**k i’m staying in little ol New Zealand, but then I remember that this country is awesome. So awesome in fact that a few of our musical exports are gracing the Download stages this year, those being Devilskin and Like A Storm. The fairy tale-esk documentary “From Hamilton to Donnington” is just waiting to be told!!
So I’ve said what id want to come here, what festival would you want to grace our shores?
