Next year for sure. Looking forward to it already. Zub is gonna try and come for the whole weekend and hopefully a couple of girls from Australia are gonna come over too. Throw in me and my friends and you have the best Reading EVER next year. Again.

I concur, they fucking rocked. I was closer to the front than the last time I saw them and it made all the difference, although I think it was generally a better show. They were just so damn tight and I was genuinely terrified at Mr Black's earth-shattering screams of 'repent'. Huge shivers.
Oh BTW wanna check if anyone saw my camp's Kiss flag in the crowd, had it down the front during Iggy and the Stooges, and was at the main stage all day yesterday. I'm only interested because there were so many happy reunions under it, with all the people being lost using it as their only bearing. Some wankers tried to burn it, lots of people threw piss at it, but the Kiss survived to rock another day!

| Despite being on the trailers, there was nothing from the Pixies on ITV2's pisspoor coverage of the festival tonight. Maybe tomorrow? |

 Aw, that's a pity! You'd think Access All Area passes would give you a decent shot at meeting them. Ah well, never mind....next time! |

Not quite, but the power of rock did seem to win through and you can't really do much about people throwing urine at you from a distance :)

Nice flag, I spotted it. I am a massive Wedding Present fan and want to know what people here thought of them at Reading. I thought the sound was waaaay too quiet, but 30 of us managed to mosh our asses off - and pissed off some twattish dropkick munters fans in the process! So, what did you think?

I know it was ages ago, but it was good wasn't it.
I said "I wanna be a singer like Lou Reed"

Hey Nic, am I right in assuming that you would have missed the rioting at Leeds on the Sunday?
Sooooo glad I go to Reading.

Yeah that's why I thought you wouldn't have seen it. As backstage is not an option for most of us, Reading is definitely better.

Yeah, so glad I was at Reading. Only a few explosoins and trolley wars, nothing like the Leeds riots. Darn notherners, need to chill out. Can't wait till next year, although I have no idea how they're going to top this years bill (Arcade Fire, Pixies, Dinosaur Jr, NOFX etc), but then again I thought that last year. I'm thinking Radiohead, Strokes and Chili Peppers next year. They're all due new albums. You heard it here first. Does anyone else have any ideas?

I guess I've got this vision of how the world should be and when it's not that way I become
a little disenchanted.
