Aech

Reminded me of another tip they give out free sunblock and ear plugs in the arena.

They better accept my spare ones from 2019 haha

Probably, especially when they close the gates because people are milling around at the back and security never bother to look round and see that there's shit loads of space. Every. Single. Time. Edit: On the plus side Pixies don't play their big hits at the end so can leave early for Beck

I still sneak in 200ml of gin of a day because even if I wanted to pay the crazy price at the barcadi bar for a cocktail it always has at least a 30 minute queue it's crazy considering every other bar has no queue.

Never had to queue for drinks, allocated when you get there front to the back right to left basically.

I believe you're allocated front to back same as the myspace areas, I found half of mySpace didn't even show up until the Thursday in 2019. You can buy a plastic carrier that fits 8 beers for half a token.

Beers are 30 cl at the Jupiler bar before 4pm fyi

Yeah there are kitchen areas in the hive I assume they have kettles, you can take your liquor in plastic bottles into camping same as any other fest. No idea on breakfast but yeah does seem well expensive. Edit: friend said they do have kettles and it's first year doing the breakfast voucher so nobody knows really

To most people under 30 that Saturday is gonna be the only good day

God I hope he shows up at Rock Werchter instead, I'm already going to Belgium twice a summer now with Pukkelpop I can't add a third.

3.5

Was very happy when Ian Brown dropped out of headlining(!?) NBHD Weekender because they wanted vaccines or covid tests (never asked for either lmao). Kings of Leon were dreadful, Fall Out Boy was also terrible but I blame that on the extremely quiet sound. Lil Pump and Bexey (before the Frank Carter secret set) in 2018 were the absolute worst I've ever witnessed though, at least Bexey didn't keep singling people out in the crowd and calling them faggots though, wanted to jump up there and knock the little c**t out so fucking bad. Just realised these are all 2018, truly a shite year for Reading.

My comment was actually about there being zero info on the vip tickets for Andalucia big festival until I noticed there's some very vague bullet points underneath where you buy the tickets haha

.

You pay in the hive but not myspace, it's also half a token not a whole one. With the amount it really depends, I'll use 80 over the four days but 3/4 of that goes on beer.

If you like drinking and eating I would highly recommend getting some tickets as they're more expensive at the festival. Can get breakfast stuff from both the hive (tickets) and the food vans along the road leading to the arena, which take Euros.

All the reading ticket resale is on ticketmaster, it was well easy to get days and weekends leading up to it last year.

Yeah that's long they didn't do that shit when I saw them

Bit dramatic they jam for a few minutes at the start and that's basically it.

Holy shit what happened to Lollapalooza Berlin, did they lost 90% of their budget and sanity?

NBT got a huge crowd in 2019, much bigger than The 1975 who played after

Can you imagine going to any other country, telling them Pearl Jam, Metallica, The Killers and RHCP are headlining the same festival and calling it a weak lineup. Glastonbury couldn't manage that.

Shame it's not an actual Encore on the Wednesday or Monday, I would've changed my eurostar to see Florence.

Surely they're not doing all this teasing to announce something that isn't Rock Werchter?

About 80. Which I've just realised is 260 euros this year so probably less this time round.
