Anyone going to Reading Festival?

[BobX]

I can't wait, what bands are you going to see?

[Rozi]

I am, and I know a few other people are :)

Not really planned what bands I 100% want to see yet, but obviously there are a few like Blink and Queens of the Stone Age. Probs be dragged along to **** ones like Mumford and Sons with my friends though :@

[Black_Apalachi]

Two of my mates just told me they're getting a couple of tickets off someone for like 50 quid less stuffy gets

[DamianLove]

I'm not. But I'm off to Leeds Festival. And felt left out. :)

[Callum.]

Yeah and I can't wait, only 70 days to go!

Looking forward to Sunday main stage, Saturday NME and Friday all over the place. Billy Talent, Mumford and Sons, KIGH, Enter Shikari, ATL and so many other bands I've wanted to see.

You weekend camping Tony?

[cocaine]

yessirrr :) weekend tickets, blink 182, enter shikari, lostprophets, kids in glasshouses and the king blues are who im most looking forward to seeing

[Plebings]

no its reading > leeds

[Black_Apalachi]

Aren't they the exact same thing just in two different places

[cocaine]

yeah exactly the same bands, but judging on how fast tickets sell out, reading is the more popular/desirable festival, therefore reading > leeds

[wixard]

yeah but leeds is more quiet i think

i'm going woooooooooooooooooooo just excited for blink, maccabees mystery jets
going to oxegen would be cheaper plus they have bombay bicycle club but whatever... i'm gonna be interailing during that so :(

[samsaBEAR]

I think Reading is probably more popular because it's easier to get to for people coming over from other countries, as well as everyone in the south

Was just about to say maybe it's because it's basically in London

[Plebings]

Leeds > Reading cause Leeds gets both Ian Watkins DJ set that no-one cares about and Dance To The Radio's Thursday night stuff, last year was Blood Red Shoes + Wild Beasts, we better get JoFo as they aren't on the FR stage :(

[Yupt]

I'm going to Reading xoxoxoxox

[Callum.]

got a email saying my tickets have been dispatched, whey! anyone else got theirs?

[Rozi]

no not yet :(

have people sorted out their travel yet? I'm hoping that coz I'm in London they'll be loads of trains going that way so I wont need to book.

[Callum.]
