Thousands of heavy metal fans were camping, singing — and even moshing — on Saturday at Britain's first full music festival since the start of the coronavirus pandemic.
The three-day Download Festival, taking place at Donington Park in central England, is one of a series of test events to see whether mass gatherings can resume without triggering outbreaks of COVID-19.
About 10,000 fans, a tenth of the festival's pre-pandemic attendance, secured tickets to watch more than 40 U.K.-based bands including Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes, Enter Shikari and Bullet for My Valentine.

When are we going to see pics like this, and how would they spin with masks on? Hard to celebrate at this point, but it's great for the Nation and morale. Americans don't care for confinement or rule. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V-J_Day_in_Times_Square
