    I'm flying into Luton. There's a local Arriva bus that runs from Luton Airport to Stevenage(Route 100) that i'm going to get. There's a shuttle bus that runs from Stevenage to Knebworth for the duration of the festival that'll take you the final leg.


    Thanks for the reply. Actually flying over on the Thurs morning now to Southend Airport where my friends will pick me up. Was going to head over Fri morning, but when I looked into flights, etc., it was too much hassle. Didn't think I'd get the Thurs off work, but I did, so everythings sorted now :)

    For those thinking times, Diamond Head just posted a provisional guide on their website, but not 100% confirmed (I know some bands have received their stage times today so times should be out by tomorrow or Wed)

    Metallica
    20.30 - 22.30
    Slayer
    18.45 - 19.45
    Megadeth
    17.15 - 18.15
    Anthrax
    16.00 - 16.45
    Diamond Head
    15.15 - 15.45

    cheers Crue,

    hoping they are slightly off, I'm actually finding myself wanting to see a full hour of Anthrax, the full version of "Fight 'em till you can't" is pretty cool, so I'd like to hear that and the hits........it doesn't really matter - this is gonna be a truely memorable day out :D

    Absolutely, that new song is really good, I can't believe I enjoy it as much as I do

    Although Slayer and Metallica are the real highlights for me, Megadeth can get ****ed:D

    same here, was worried about the stuff when it initially surfaced, but really looking forward to hearing the album now.....

    yeah I'm the same, haven't seen Slayer in ages........but I'll have a listen to Megadeth anyway......and haven't seen Anthrax in ages either - the only one on the main stage I've really no interest in is Diamond Head....

    Ive been keeping an eye on the long term weather reports. Most places are predicting rain at some point over the weekend.

    I don't mind that, I mean a little rain is alright, a lot of sun and you get baked and can't really enjoy the day as much - some cool weather or sun showers are always welcomed!

    Plus a bit of rain keeps the dust down. Sonisphere is horrible for dust.
