This looks exactly your kind of festival mate.

Which, unfortunately, is not mine. But I'm going anyway, it'll be a quality weekend still. They've chosen two massively unreliable names in Guns n' Roses and Libertines though, somewhat of a gamble taken from Festival Republic really.

I'm just praying there's some good bands to be released on the Radio 1/NME stage later as well. I don't think I can take much of fu cking Youmeatsix and All Time Low etc. Praying for Klaxons and Ellie Goulding somewhere along the line...

Oi!!

Nah each to their own. I've loved previous line-ups but never been. Simply too expensive for me to be honest. I'd love to go for the whole weekend to get absolutely smashed while listening to my favourite music, but I guess I can do that back here

[Joe.]

Got mine within a minute of going on sale. Too easy.

Libertines on the main stage? That will be dreadful, doubtful Doherty will make it anyway. I'll wait for the tour.

[Joe.]

Sounds absolute quality.

Gutted Klaxons are clashing with Blink, they were two of the main bands I wanted to see.

Massive fan of the Radio 1/NME stage for the Reading Friday/Leeds Sunday.

Going Reading on the sunday, can't wait BLINK

Debating getting a day ticket for Wireless on the Sunday.

Id only really be paying for it to see Drake, as I'll have already seen Jay-Z by then, some good acts on the Sunday though, Wale and Tinie Tempah also there.

It's a good day out too, regardless of the music (which was good too obviously).

You been Wireless before?

[Libertine]

Blink are terrible live anyway.

You not bothering with this for Arcade Fire and Weezer?

[Libertine]

You not bothering with this for Arcade Fire and Weezer?

I know, right. I wish I could but I have no friends. At all.

[Tilley]

Jack's in our tent, Joe.

Had a nightmare tonight.

At one point I had one Reading ticket and no Leeds ticket but got there in the end, added to the excitement of it all I guess.

THE LIBERTINES.

[samlcfc]

Blink are terrible live anyway.

I went to one of their concerts on the tour before they broke up and thought it was awesome. Put on a really good show

[StanSP]

I'd go just to see Travis Barker on drums

[Fosse Boy]

Would probably only be excited by Weezer and Limp Bizkit out of that line-up. Seen most of the rest already, and can't stand Guns 'n' Roses.

Anyone going Beachbreak? Really tempted by that now as there should be tickets available still when I have some cash at hand.

[Finchy]

Thinking about Bestival, insane DJ line up...

Is that the one who thinks it's still 1977?
