[Bags]

Sorry to bump this but would a 45L bag be large enough for the weekend with my clothes in etc?

Or would a 65L be more efficient?

Thanks

[So... Who's gunna be announced this week]

would anyone know if jack penate would be played reading at all?

I doubt he will but I hope

thanks

[Airbourne Toxic Event]

really great band. Album is great too! Would love to see them live

[Swine Flu]

Anyone read this about Glastonbury

http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2009/may/0...tival-swine-flu

Hopefully the same wont happen at reading.

Completely blown this out of proportion. I mean newspapers houldnt be aloud to print the things they print. I read one saying something like 100,000 Brits predicted to be dead as Swine flu spreads.

[The Maccabees]

Picked up their album on Monday and I really hope they do well with it. I downloaded their first one so thought Id support this time and really great stuff!

I was looking for them on the reading line up and I couldnt see them for ages so was gutted but then my mate said open your eyes haha

[Bags]

Cheers people

Thats a good idea about taking two bags. Will deff have to do this. I remember loosing my train tickets before in a big bag I had on me. Lucky he was a safe guy and didnt kick me off ha

[Bags]

First festival really and tbh the only bag I have in my house is my old school one which I really cant see fitting anything in haha

What kind of bag is best to buy for carrying everything such as clothes, ground mats etc

Posting some links would help

Cheers guys!

[Pendulum Special Guests]

big disappointment if they are playing

I really hope they dont

[Bands This Year Who Can't Sing For Shit?]

And also, Bloc party singer cant sing for shit!

[Valuables?]

can i ask wht the f**k with will you do with your clothes cos i can c some piky robbing them

[arctic monkeys out of their depth!]

Would much rather see Artic Monkeys anyday over prodigy.

Really dislike the new direction they have taken. They may be full of energy, work the crowd, be better live.....Just not my cup of tea any more.

[Yeah Yeah Yeahs]

Got hold of their album the other day, First listen to them ever after hearing their single on the radio. Real nice band. Love the album

Cant wait to see them live

[Radiohead Vs Lostprophets]

Lostprophets for me.

Never heard any radiohead (yeah yeah I know) and have always wanted to see the prophets.

[Hello... The Prodigy!]

Am I the only one who does not like the prodigy? Cant stand them

Will definitely not be watching them

[first time at reading]

You can survive without a locker, just don't take anything worth nicking (and keep all money/phone/camera on you at all times).

Nah you don't need to wash. Take wet wipes, the scented ones are nice.

[Best time to get there?]

Nope.

[first time at reading]

edit all lockers are sold out now anyway i think lol

[first time at reading]

Be my first Reading too and was just wondering do I NEED a locker? Or can I survive without one?

Also how many people dont wash over the weekend? Becuase Ill probably be too drunk to bother then ill be sleeping all morning and when i wake up ill either be eating or drinking again lol. No time.

[Best time to get there?]

Wow that is pretty early ha.

So much for me going to turn up later lol. If i do turn up and every where is full and I have to go to white camp, Is there a charge for the shuttle boat thing?

Thanks

[Campsite games and fun]

rape and pillage.

[How long do seetickets take to take the money?]

They took my money within like 20mins but ITs different for everyone.

Like when I order vinyls online I use the same shop a lot and sometimes they take the money straight away and other times it takes upto 5 days. Some orders I have placed online with soe shops and it takes over a week for them to take the money lol.

Im sure you'll be fine as like you say you have a confirmation letter.

[The Gaslight Anthem]

Only heard one of their songs which gets play on radio 1 ive been meaning to check them out.

[All these extra tickets which have been canceled]

Aparently theres some nme ones left

https://www.seetickets.com/see_fm/price.asp...;filler1=id1nme

i dunno what the nme batch of tickets is all about but someone posted the link on another forum although someone tried buying them and it didnt work saying to call see and check availability. Its worth a try though I guess?

[TICKETS FOR READING]

That was quick lol. Just got my confirmation email too

That was lucky, I mean if i had gone for food instead of checking one last time I would have missed out lol

there'll probably be some more soon anyway if you keep checking

[All these extra tickets which have been canceled]

Cheers, yeah i just thought ill try once more before i go to make some pasta haha and low and behold no red writing saying 'sold out'

Ive literlly been refreshing that page every 2 minutes which is a lot of times in one day from 8am till 12 at night ha
