rotherhamfox Posted 28 August 2006 Share Posted 28 August 2006 Was decent. Apart from torrential downpours on Wednesday and Sunday. Bandwise i wasn't that fussed about alot of them but some i caught were excellent such as Boysetfire, Municipal Waste, Send more paramedics(Just for the fact some decent circles took place), Flogging Molly, and a little known ska band called Lightyear, i really detest ska but i thought they put on a great show, and they quoted Partridge a few times. P.S I had me city shirt on and got a few good comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rotherhamfox Posted 29 August 2006 Author Share Posted 29 August 2006 Here's a list of the bands and what i thought of them: The Quiet Kill-Expected them to be good considering half the band were part of Million Dead, they were fairly bollocks Enter Shikari-Fairly Average Sikth-I like them but it weren't a great show at all Mastodon-Decent Slayer-Were good, didn't seem totally into it though Placebo-Were decent The yeah yeah yeahs-Enjoyed it, laughed when it appeared she had got tape stuck in her hair Lightyear-Great Towers of London-Twas a laugh, i swear they weren't playing guitar Dirty Pretty Things-Absolute shite Feeder-Great The Futureheads-Not bad Wolfmother-Big daft rip off of Led Zepp but still enjoyable Flogging Molly-Great Aiden-Not amazing but were they ever going to be Coheed-Decent, slightly self indulgent last ten minutes but did show they were excellent guitar players Be your own pet-Not a big fan before i went but they put on a good show Eagles of death metal-Good old fashioned rock n roll, really enjoyed it Muse-Not as good as i expected Rise Against-Lots of this type of punk sounds very samey and they were no exception Send more Paramedics-Had a fun time in the big circle Municipal Waste-Were decent, i thought there might have been more people there though The Bled-Average Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deathside Posted 29 August 2006 Share Posted 29 August 2006 Here's a list of the bands and what i thought of them: Mastodon-Decent Towers of London-Twas a laugh, i swear they weren't playing guitar Aiden-Not amazing but were they ever going to be You saw the mainstage opening band everyday - How the fúck did you manage that??? - I had planned to see Mastodon and Towers of London - but was still at the tent drinking breakfast vodka when they played I was most impressed with Municipal Waste - And was chuffed to see Phil (Bass) walking around the festival later in the day Aside from The Waste, the highlight for me was Nouvelle Vague You did really well to see Eagles of Death Metal - Mrs Deathside & I couldn't get into the tent - it was rammed - Who was drumming for them? - When I saw them in Belgium last week it wasn't Josh (Cobbo) Hommes I already posted the list of bands I recall seeing in Craig's Reading thread HERE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rotherhamfox Posted 29 August 2006 Author Share Posted 29 August 2006 Josh Homme weren't drumming sadly, but they were very enjoyable. Not to be rude but are you the blonde mohican guy? I think i was the one you showed your city tat too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think i was the one you showed your city tat too. Sounds feasible - Not a mohican - Spiked all over - I do recall bumping into a city shirt as I was leaving either the NME or the LockUp tent - But the memory is somewhat vague If it helps - here's a couple of pics from Leeds (and don't I look happy!) - A small part of that old tattoo is just visible in the 2nd pic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rotherhamfox Posted 30 August 2006 Author Share Posted 30 August 2006 Yeh i think you were leaving the lock up stage. Seemed to be a few city fans there over the weekend. You missed out on a good gig there, Lightyear. I ruddy can't stand ska but they were well good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Posted 5 September 2006 Share Posted 5 September 2006 it seems if you go on the Pukkelpop website you can watch various bands BUT only if you have some dodgy Belgian ADSL connection which I think is a just a little unfair!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
