People always say the chilis were rubbish in 07 but i personally thought they were amazing...
-
Catch 22 disbanded a long while ago didnt they? Big D and the Kids Table could be added to that list as well I think, other than that could be a good estimate of what we'll be seeing.

Sick of it all
A day to remember
Four Year Strong
The Casualties
Skindred

I see theres some typical punk-rock snobs in here.
Genres change and develop. Get over it.

He's the only hip hop at thats still alive and can compete with Jay-Z.

But as far as I'm concerned Paramore are absolutley no more alternative than JLS. Paramore are produced by the person that has masterminded Paris Hilton's musical carear, they are close friends with Miley Cyrus, their music is in no way alternative. I am in no way knocking anyone that likes them, this is only my opinion, and I accept there is a fairly large chance now that we will see them at Reading.

They could have held the gig anywhere in the UK and people would still have had to travel to get there. Such a stupid thing to be complaining about. Rage are playing a free gig for 40,000 people! As if theres actually people finding something to whine about. Lighten up!
-
I don't understand how you can possibly get annoyed that it's in London!? They can't play everywhere in the country to make sure nobody has to pay to travel. It makes perfect sense to have it in London.
-
Anyone reckon there's any chance? Would be amazing on the Lock up!

Well its certainly true in Pearl Jam's case. Anyone who was at Pearl Jam's headline set in 2007 knows it was a special moment in the history of Reading and Pearl Jam.
The others i'm guessing, but i know i'm right
(Grohl and Homme say its the best festival crowd in the world, that's fact). Its all about Reading for the bands. Its older, larger, more famous, more history. Did Nirvana give one of the greatest festival performances of all time at Leeds? No! Because it didn't exist. It was only created as a marketing gimmick for mean fiddler and Carling. And i bet you KoL wouldn't have cared as much if they had nailed their Reading performance but messed up their Leeds gig.To be honest though i think the difference is when the Reading crowd gives love then there's little to rival it (e.g. bringing Vedder to tears), but they're also not scared to tell a band when they're crap or plain old not wanted. Leeds just sat back and left fifty cents feed them his pathetic gangster rap. Reading pelted him with hate until he got off their stage.
A band has to earn the respect of the crowd at Reading. There's only one group in charge at Reading as KoL found out on Friday, and that's the punters, and that's how it should be.
(BTW, i've been to both Leeds and Reading, Leeds is great but there's no mistaking which one the bands care more about)
-
.... for crap commercial indie bands who have no respect for their audience. Ask the big boys like Pearl Jam, Metallica, RATM, Pumpkins, Maiden, etc who has the best crowd and I guarantee you that not only will they say Reading, but they probably won't even remember that they had to play something called the 'Leeds Festival' to meet contractual obligations.
-
Proof that the Leeds crowd will always kick readings ass.
-
I thought they were amazing at Leeds
-
Will the times each band's gonna be on be announced before wednesday? I wanna print it off to save spending a stupid amount on one of those necklaces...
Lock Up
