So I’m thinking of taking my younger brother to this (15 turning 16) that’s never been to a festival…or a standing concert. He absolutely loves slipknot and bring me and if this leak is legit then it’s pretty stacked for me too. He can get pretty anxious and everything in crowds, and his eyesight isn’t amazing, but he said he’d absolutely love to go Think it’ll be alright for him? Never been myself but far as I know this festival isn’t full of dickheads like reading is so…

Yknow as much as I enjoyed myself this year they very seriously need to address the shit that’s been going on this year. Not a single mention of anything on social media, not even of the boy that died at leeds. Nothing. they’re acting like life is peachy but almost every video and story I’ve seen online is just “reading and leeds is a shit hole”

The people my age at guitar acts are the type to pick you up if you fall down, like at courting I had to back out to tie my shoes and someone kept an eye on me. In frank carter someone fell on my ankle and fucked it so they moved me to the back and checked I was okay The same age at rap crowds didn’t give a fuck about anyone else

Purple was scary I can’t lie, getting back to my tent after courting to see all our chairs gone was a bit annoying wont be camping there again lol

could’ve just deleted the comment lol anywho i would like to know out of interest who thought it’d be a good idea to put d-block europe on right before fucking bmth?

Does anyone know if they’re gonna upload the rest of the headliners to the iPlayer?

Fuck paying £7 for a pint man, me and my friends filled a camelback with jungle juice and stuck it in a pair of baggy cargos and that did us fine for the day 🤣

Yeah because everyone wanted to see arctic monkeys Anyway I agree. Might sound hypocritical considering that kinda was me this year (granted usually with army pants instead of shorts because deep pockets lol) but in a weird way it can be a good indicator of what crowds to avoid saying that I don’t necessarily think it’s a bad thing for people to be going around shirtless (it was REALLY fucking hot this year esp if ur moshing a lot) and I dunno what else people are meant to wear but fanny packs when backpacks aren’t allowed But it’s usually a specific demographic that do it and there lies the issue

Best acts I saw: Friday: frank carter, kid kapichi, bilk, wallows (didn’t catch Dave because my mates couldn’t be fucked) saturday: dayglow, fontaines, wolf Alice, poppy, BMTH Sunday: 100 gecs, stickmen (though I may be biased due to a variety of factors), courting, Denzel curry, 1975 Worst: arctic monkeys, BBN$ (ran out of fucking songs to play lol), Charli XCX Hidden gems: Courting, stone, anorak patch, kid kapichi, bilk Best moments: anorak patch signing a can of beans, all of courting’s set (scratched up my army pants and someone grabbed my chain which cut my throat a bit but otherwise fine), Fontaines bringing that dude up to play guitar, ultimate at Denzel 2023 headliners: Muse, Kendrick, not sure who else so I’ll just say carti to annoy people

I’m sure the Reading 2009 attendee will be overjoyed at this information

Maybe most people got early bird this year…🤷‍♂️ thanks for the advice though

Figured this might be a good idea for people that don’t want to sift through the discussion on the main thread. Post campsite updates here for either reading or leeds Try and preface what you’re posting with whether it’s at reading or leeds first though Im not actually there yet so I’m half doing this for my own benefit but maybe it’ll help others too

Doesn’t really matter how good he is, he can draw a fucking enormous crowd saying that I don’t think he’s as big here as he is in America most comments on socials are just asking for last years lineup lmfao

still pretty sure muse will be there

Anyway. Muse will almost certainly be there, I'm willing to put money on it.
