According to http://www.readingfesty.org/ the cribs have self confirmed themselves to be performing at Leeds and reading... Don't know how liable the information is though...

They also point out that Lethal Bizzle want to play again, according to their Twitter. (personally I've never  heard of lethal bizzle :/ )

Sorry for the double post, my computer went off on one... I will try to delete my other post if I can find out how:unsure:

I seen Lethal B last year and he was amazing. One of my highlights on the weekend! Not my sort of music at all but the atmosphere was just top notch. Acts like him are a success at reading because its something different to go to on one of the days and just go mental! lol top atmosphere.

Love to have him again

Mine too, from minute one they blew me away.

Everyone I could see was really enjoying it.

Talking to people after it I got the feeling that most were absolutely blown away with what they saw. 45 minutes of sheer ability and awesomeness( not really a word) from my point of view.

I think there was an element of being blown away just seeing the three of them in a tent (and the other guitarist of course, who I always feel a little bit sorry for!) Saying that, I also thought they were superb, especially as no-one knew any of the stuff they were playing.

As for The Cribs, self-confirmed or not they've got to be about as close to a dead cert as you can get. Alright band, I'll see them if there's nothing better on.

totally agree. His cover of smells like teen spirit was such a dangerous move but i think he pulled it off pretty well.

I would have been very surprised if The Cribs didn't play. I was quite surprised they didn't play last year so I thought they'd definately be there this year.

f**k TCV :P

The Cribs were amazing in 2008. Seen them live 10 times and they have been near perfect 9 out of the 10 times (the not perfect time was due to sound problems).

Only Ryan Jarman would bleed for his fans every night of a tour (although this technically was about 5 years ago!)

that's good news.  every time i have seen the cribs they have been excellent!
wish that they were still a 3 piece though as i think they lose a bit of their punk edge (a bit like when ash became a 4 piece).

i saw TCV last year and wasn't particularly impressed.  wasn't bowled over by the music, it sounded like poor queens of the stone age songs with great big cheers whenever dave grohls face apperared on the screens.
