Sweet, they did this last year.

Death Angel performed earlier, they were awesome.

It looks like they have a pretty Strong line up this year

Dark Funeral should be sweet.

Voivod play today at the Ronnie James Dio stage, hope their show gets streamed.

Ye man, all Main Stage stuff does.

If they skip Voivod I will be pissed.

King Diamond should be epic.

Ex Deo are on now, sound p good.

Municipal Waste first, Voivod immediately after them, a dream comes true...


I think that the stream will cover the Ronnie James Dio stage, the festival's headlining bands will play at this stage.

Yea man, this band are killin it who are on now.

Ex Deo is pretty awesome live.

I love how he calls the audience Britiania.

Dark Funeral next

Avantasia, then Gojira??? :D

Gojira and Avantasia are tomorrow. I'm looking Forward to those two bands. Sabaton will be great as well.

I know, and I have the day off too ))))))))

Dark Funeral is on.

The Audio is not to good here.

Man them drums are WAAAAAAAY too fucking loud, can't even hear the guitars or vox.

I hear vocals now but the drums are still to loud.

Seems like they have a bit of trouble with the mixing. The vocals have suddenly got louder so maybe they're working on it.

I second that, vocals and guitars are lost -hmm vocals are now fixed, but the sound in general is still not that good-

Huge absence of guitars still.

I can barely hear the guitars. But I don't hear any bass at all.

vocals getting louder and louder. guitars still drowned out.

THIS ISN'T BLACK METAL WHEN YOU CAN HEAR THE BASS AND NOT THE GUITARS. THIS IS THE OPPOSITE OF THE INTENDED SOUND

These vox are bad ouch.

I'm picking up some bass. Might be the speakers I'm using though.

This band is a sloppy mess right now.

Guitars are finally picking up some volume.

IT'S NOT KVLT TO BE GOOD LIVE

Yeah guitars are coming through but these vox are weak for BM.

I can hear some bass now too.

Yeah Masse seems pretty off form atm.

Drummer is a monster though.

Ye drumming is good but way too loud in the mix.

Meh.

I agree, Viovod. The drummer is really working his ass off right now.

Well his name is DOMINATOR so what do you expect?

Well I've seen the IT Crowd so I think of a standard nerd shouting I AM DOMINATORRR

I think the volume of the Drums are ok now. But at the beginning they were the only thing you could hear.

Seems like its been sorted, looked like they were having a word then.

Meh. Vocals are ruining it for me. I'll be back for Municipal Waste.

dark funeral lmao what a load of shit

The sound is finally optimized in Dark Funeral's closure song...

Ha, thats unlucky.

The vocals are still shit.

pretty sweet stream. tomorrow will be a decent day. may check out voiv though if I have the time

Voivod will be worth it.

m/

Finally thats over with.

Firewind is up next.

Let's see how they will cope with their new singer.

I did not know they had a new singer.

hey firewind, my band opened for these guys last year lol

Sweet MO m/

Yea, I'm interested in some of these bands.

Gus G is a great guitar player. I'm looking forward to see him play.

The stream is up again.

Ah, some thrash I've never heard...should be interesting

The new Vocalist is nothing special but it works.

The old Vocalist wasn't anything special either.

I can't find a schedule to save my life

Solid vocals yea

http://www.bloodstock.uk.com/ Here is the line up and order of bands if thats what you are looking for, Zippa.

This crowd needs to wake the fuck up.

I'm just not seeing times

I don't know where you can find the start time of each show, sorry.

I'm trying to figure out if I'll be working through Avantasia or not. If I am, I'm calling in sick.

Avantasia will be sure to put on a great show.

Tobi is an excellent showman.

Tobi is my fucking hero. I have 125 Edguy songs and all three albums of the scarecrow arc for Avantasia.

This crowd needs to wake the fuck up

this

These guys sound really tight too, shame.

Avantasia is definitely a better band than Edguy these days. but, Edguy's earliers stuff is probably Tobias best work imo.

Damn, that was a sweet ass solo m/

Can't wait for Voivod.

Gus G is a beast.

Firewind started playing more aggressively and some heads finally banged.

Yeah but only a few.

More people are head banging now.

I think everybody is saving him/herself for Municipal Waste, Voivod etc.

Katsionis - keyboards/guitar/camera - is a beast.

Credit to Firewind though, sounds damn tight.

Municipal waste will most likely wake everyone up. They are a really energetic band.

Firewind is aight. I think the crowd is mostly black and death though, they seem a little bewildered.

The end of time song being played right now is amazing. I love that old school power metal sound.

Their guitars sound awesome, the best sound in this stage so far.

^ I agree.

This performance has gone by too fast.

When things flow smoothly, time flies.

Best act so far.

That was probably the best performance yet. I wasn't expecting Firewind to be that good.

Municipal Waste is gonna rule.

It will surely be a very exciting show.

The crowd is already pumped.

and the moshing has began...

Nice Slayer t too m/

A song about stomping Jesus's face. I like it already.

man this is rockin hard m/

whos on now? nightwish?

dat moshing turbulence...


edit: Municipal Waste KILL

This band is by far the best band that has played today.

i wasnt far off :D

Haha, thought you dug Municipal Waste?

lol theyre pretty fun, new album was lame tho

Their guitarist is left handed; no I worship them even more.

m/ m/

Hmm can't really get through their albums, a few songs in a row is cool tho.

hazardous mutation is easily their best

Municipal Waste is better live than on their albums imo.

m////

Massive Aggressive, their best by far

SHES GONNA TEAR HER FACE OFF AND THROW IT DOWN THE STAIRS

lol on ur own voivod

I wanna mosh.

Ha this would be so fun.

COS IM DRUNK AS SHIT

Awesome how people carried the man sitting on the wheel chair to the front.................

That was fucking awesome.

m/ hard to that dude.

Wheelchair crowd surfing. One of the most amazing things I have ever seen.

Stream is fucking up for me a lil bit.

it is for me too.

^^this.

People are going in to see the rest of the bands..

Its fine again now.

Those last two "Fuck the President" songs were pretty funny.

wave of death hahahahaah

THE WAVE OF DEATH

Haha

Holy fucking shit, this madness haha.

Security has their hands full.

History has been made.

SADISTIC


MAGICIAN

got nothing to do the rest of the day, gonna chjill and watch this

Voivod is next.

That just kicked my ass.

Mine too.

Voivod is about to start.

finally a good band

here it comes......

Blacky is a great bass player

SOUND'S FUCKING AWESOME!!

Every member of this band is loaded with talent.

Motherfuck I missed Municipal Waste while I was cooking breakfast

^ you missed a great show.

dude voivod are on now who gives a shit about those turds

Voivod is kicking ass.

Sweet jesus, his Xiphos looks freaking sick. The natural finish is AWESOME. And dat bass. DAT BASS.

not a xiphos lol jackson warrior

PSYCHIC VACUUUUUUUUUM!!!!!

Ah, my bad. Regardless, it looks pretty sick, amiright? Voivod, what the fuck are you doing here? You're supposed to be on stage!

the sun is setting and the music becomes even more effective.....

This song is fucking amazing.

It's like they're summoning the night

@ZippaThaRippa

I have a shitload of work to do, otherwise I would be on that stage.

This stream is messing up at a really bad time.

IT'S AN OVEEEEEERRR REACTIOOOOOOOOOOONNNN!!!!!!!!

The stream can't handle Voivod

Its better now.

WE ARE ENGINEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRSSSSSS!!!!!

FORGOTEEENN IN SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!



*I'm loosing my mind...*

That guitar solo was mind blowing.

Their performance is equal to that in the actual albums, if not better.

Voivod was Amazing.

Excellent show from Voivod, Accept are next.

Accept are only ok now. I liked them better with Udo.

People say their new singer is also effective in his duties, albeit he is different from Udo.

The show will be interesting.

The new vocalist is good enough. He does well with the udo songs.

Balls to the Wall.

King Diamond is next.

Are you fucking shitting me they won't show King Diamon. I guess I'll just have to wait until tomorrows showing. Hopefully they will show all the bands up to Avantasia.

Wish I was there. Some excellent bands playing this, especially Voivod. My housemate Jess is working this, she's working the bars.

It's day two of the festival and 3 inches of blood is about to play.

Sabaton are about to play, their intro tune is Europe's "Final Countdown" and the fans are jamming it.

Right on.

dat moustache

haha yeah

we wunt beer!

Sabaton is tearing it up.

I'm beginning to suspect that their drummer is Snowy Shaw (King Diamond/Memento Mori etc)...

No profanity.

Haha, Sabaton are kicking ass.

They're great entertainers, but their power metal is pretty standard, for me at least.

Sabaton is super great live.

They are one of those bands that are better live than on their albums.

The crowd loves it.

I missed Gojira at work but Sabaton is TIGHT

Play Screaming Eagles.

Sabaton put on a great show today.

dude what a fucking cool guy. Just made those kids lives right there.

Great show! Avantasia is next. They will probably be great as well.

I'm so excited

Gojira weren't streaming anyway.

Avantasia are putting on a great show!

Agreed.

OH FUCK THEY'RE PLAYING SCARECROW

WHEN I'M WALKING THROUGH THE FEN, GOTTA DEEP IN TO THE BLACK

The band is tight, with some moments of real grandeur.

Micheal Kiske! Helloween's old singer.

Dude they need to get this fucking stream together. Not the time.

I want to go but it's a three hour drive from Worthing, not sure if I want to drive that far especially since my next paycheck hasn't come in yet.

Sammett is making soccer jokes hahahahaha

Its good to know Tobi likes the same Football team as I.

they have awesome on-stage chemistry

Sammet and Kiske both have an Obvious love for music.

Yeah they all have such great presence on stage. The drummer is all about this shit

The audience is lapping it up.

Kiske is back!

That was such an Epic show.

whos next/

Lamb of God.

Great show, I must check 1-2 Avantasia albums at least.

All their albums are pretty good.

I don't know if I will watch lamb of god or not. I'm not a huge fan but I'm a little curious to see how they are live.

nah, angel of Babylon is definitely not good. Everything else though is fantastic. Pick up the Scarecrow first

your right. I forgot AOB existed. Its just a boring album.

Lamb of God have started their show, they sound massive.

Looking forward to Gama Bomb and Devildriver tomorrow

Chris Jericho's band Fozzy is playing right now and they don't sound to good.

Holy shit Devildriver are insane

Anthrax put on a really energetic show.

Holy shit Devildriver are insane

For those interested, Slayer have just begun their show..

Today's show hasn't been as good as the other 2 days. Avantasia did the best of any band at this festival.

You say that because you are probably not seeing Slayer right now. Avantasia and Voivod are No 2, right after Slayer.


And yeah, I didn't like Anthrax today.

I am Watching Slayer right now. I'm just not a huge fan of them so that might be why I don't dig their show as much.

I like how their backdrop is a Jeff Hanneman Tribute banner.

Awesome show by Slayer.

In total, it was a great festival.

Yeh, it was a lot better than Wacken Open Air. The best performances from this Fest in my Opinion were Avantasia, Voivod, Sabaton and Municipal Waste. Overall it was a great Festival. I can't wait to see who will be there next year.

^^Yeah, I forgot to mention Municipal Waste, they were awesome too.

I just found out that Emperor will be headlining Bloodstock 2014. I can't wait for that.

Well, looks like Bloodstock ruled YET AGAIN. I'm saving for next year, given that Emperor have been announced as headliner.
