Reading/Leeds

Ok COMPLETELY changed my mind, after listening to a lot of bands on the Reading line up i'd never really bothered listening to, in the last hour or so using the wonderful Spotify, I have found some bands I now officially bum. I'm actually amazed at how many of these festival Republic bands I like! God i'm so ignorant. But seriously what a line up, good times!

I made a playlist of bands I will be trying to see at Reading, anyone with Spotify have a listen, maybe make some playlists too :) Can't believe it's taken me this long to get into Manchester Orchestra, I saw them at Reading 07 and thought they were sh*t but they are sooo good.

jb, Manchester Orchestra are sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet. I Can Feel A Hot One is a quality track.

I know this nowww! lol

Seriously good band yeah, just finished listening to ILAVLAC all the way through, such a good album.

You seriously going to see La Roux? Clashes with Radiohead >_<

Nah I won't, it's just a decent addition to that stage that's all. I'll make an effort to go see some of the "smaller" bands this year I hope though, really want to see Grammatics.

Tbh ive only heard of Deadmau5, Lady Soverign and Chase & Status.

Chase & Status are dnb and the only ones I know of in any depth.

They are top producers but a bit cheesy for my likings. The annoying thing is they have the ability but have sold out. I only own one of there tunes and its in my top list "Loves Theme". The problem is they have sold out and make music purely for the dance and no soul but after a few tins and ecstasy pipes im sure they will have you rocking.

A mate of mine into house raves on about Deadmau5. Im sure he dj's in a mouse outfit :giggle: only thing I know about him/her.

And Lady Soverign I know from the radio :sick: Really not my thing at all.

Im sure some the other acts will be heavy.

Im surprised by that list, in the past Reading have had Marky, Roni Size, High Contrast to name a few down there.

Im guessing they are trying to cater for all.

I've got 3OH!3's album, isn't bad. Wouldn't call it dance though.

Also, isn't MTWG's avatar Deadmau5?

Yeah it is. Quite fancy seeing them actually, puts on a good show apparently. Difficult thing is getting my mates away from fecking Lostprophets.

Posted

Got a mate who's really into 3OH!3, like potter can't really see how they'd fit into dance though.

And if it's a choice between Lostprophets and deadmau5, Joe, you know what you've got to do.

*EDIT - And Chipmunk shouldn't even be allowed near music.

Go see Master Shortie. He'll make you feel better about missing Newcastle away.

Check out 'Dead End' and 'Rope Chain' chooons.

Already on the agenda mate. Dead End is an absolute tune, love it.

Really underwhelmed by the line-up now, apart from a select few.

I think Saturday in particular is really poor, and i've a feeling that it may well be spent in the pub watching the lunch time kick off (Hopefully Arsenal vs United, as a few of my mates are fans of those two), and Jeff Stelling... in preparation for The Prodigy and Arctic Monkeys.

Pretty poor line up that although after listening to your CD Swap Joe I reckon you should definitely see Vitalic. Proper banging electro/house, will be sort of similar to Justice type stuff but maybe a touch deeper and darker. Saw him at a rave in London a few months ago, meant to be somewhat of a hero in those circles.

Chase and Status will put on a decent show but yeah they're annoyingly commercial for me. Still the atmosphere will probably make up for it as they'll definitely get everyone going.

Heard of MSTRKRFT as well but don't know much about them, have a feeling they're meant to be good though.

You can now buy early entry on see tickets.com if anyone is interested

Posted

Tickets came today! :)

Thank god for that Cross Country train leaflet that came with it to tell me about the cheap train service, I was about to book a bus ticket from Leicester for £40!

Managed to get a train ticket from Brum to Reading £11.90 return :o

So excited now, 2 weeks today i'll be sitting in a probably wet field in Reading drinking warm cider, heaven.

Due to breaking the bottom of my leg and dislocating my ankle a week or so ago, I can't make Reading this year. I have an early bird ticket with travel from Leicester if anyone is interested then PM me.

Some lucky person should take advantage ^^^ i would if i wasn't going leeds :P

Friday is going to be IMMENCE!!! I am looking forward to this so much.

How much alcohol are people taking this year? I was feeling a crate of fosters then a couple of bottles of cheap vodka with some mixers. 2 crates worth was too much to carry last year.
