Download? Dangerous? Noooooo not if you're with friends and can look after yourself. To be hinest i've been to download and Leeds fest and felt a hell of a lot safer at Downloand. The people there are just friendlier and everyone looks out for each other.
That said, if you dont mind me asking how old are you?
Mine gave in to let me go (to Leeds fest) when i was 17 (though before then i didnt have the money!)
