I saw Soil at Download in 2012 and they were great. Walking Papers were there last year but I really have no interest in Duff outside GNR.
Anyway, did Soundwave on Saturday. Biffy Clyro and Heaven's Basement were the only bands I really needed to see but of course they clashed, so I went with Biffy instead because I've seen Heaven's Basement at the last two Downloads (saw Biffy at Download 2012 but they were pretty average then). Anyway, they were great on Saturday and I can't wait to see them again in September when they tour.
I hung out with my friend for the rest of the day so I just saw what she wanted to see. It was a nice day and I liked not having to stress about making it to bands. So I saw a bit of Alkaline Trio, Our Last Night, a bit of AFI, a bit of Gwar, most of Placebo, A Day to Remember, a bit of Alice in Chains, a bit of Korn, most of Jimmy Eat World, the first hour or so of Green Day and the first two or three songs of letlive. Left just before 9.
So I wasn't passionate about seeing most of anything on the bill but I didn't mind. Most of the bands I was interested in I had seen at the last two Downloads so was cool with missing them.
