I would like to apolgise now to all the Radiohead Geeks for the winding up I have given em over

the last few months.

And will think of them when the band walk on stage at Leeds !

No doubt in early 2010 on this forum we can melt the servers with Radiohead banter !

:)

Not only am I not apologising , but Im actually retracting Ivans apology from above. The thought of standing there listening to that whiney, head bobbing little maggot sing his pretentious rubbish and preach about how were all c**ts because we drove to the festival, while all the Radio “heads” stand in awe weeping, “Oh he had an eye problem when he was a kid, he was an outsider, just like me”, is f**king depressing.

I'd like to double-down on Ollan's retraction there.

Radiohead fans' blind obsessive worship really gets on my tits. Their fans salivate at every gloom filled lyric, swoon at every OTT vocal line from that blonde misery-gut's depressed little gob. Both Radiohead and their fans form a circle jerk of middle class ennui that wouldnt know rock 'n roll if their miserable lives depended on it.

i spoke to a business contact this morning who has bought Reading tix .... she was disappointed with radiohead, she said she'd outgrown her teenage suicidal angst. :)

I must say Radiohead are still my favourite band and definitely the best band I've seen live. Do I find them depressing? No. Do I blindly worship them in an obsessive manner? No. I just like the music they make, simple as that.

They seem to be the "must see" headliner at Leeds this year. Don't know why, save the odd decent tune they're just too self-indulgent. I hear they're great live and all but if there's someone good on one of the other stages I'll give them a miss.

And also, all of a sudden everyone going to Reading and Leeds have jumped on the Radiohead bandwagon. "RATM syndrome", I call it.<_<

    • f**king horrendous and seems they couldn’t run an egg and spoon race.  zero info and the crush waiting to get in to see Massive Attack was potentially disasterous. Zero info, no stewards at all and was told that the whole evening was cancelled, when we got to the exit. Because it rained. First time attendee and i’ve got onsay, i’m far from impressed. Scalping bastard taxis asking €37 plus for an €11 fare too. Wonderdul.
    • Rumours are it's called The Lost Tour. In the US in September. Ireland in November (so UK+Europe a good bet around November/early December). 
    • Hey guys, is there a group going for any solo y not goers this year?? I couldn’t miss out once I saw the acts but it’s just me and would be great to meet some others:))
    • After deciding to abandon the festival, here's a few of my thoughts (mostly negative tbf).    On the positive side - was it just me or were there a few more urinals than last year? Seemed to help the queues at the loos a bit from what i saw. Plus they had at least had some foresight and had a few more covered areas in the VIP areas.    Now on the negatives.  The weather was admittedly pretty crap but it wasn't apocalyptic. How the actual f**k are bits of the main stage falling off in those conditions?  Then the communication was awful, there's a load of people who left the site because they were told by security guards/other personnel that there would be no more acts on the main stage this evening.  You have an app Primavera, use it! Yes, there's a shitload going on I'm sure but communication with the festivalgoers should be one of the top priorities. You failed.    And I'm not usually somebody who buys into the whole "oh this is hugely unsafe and it's lucky people weren't hurt" narrative, but all the above led to movements of people that were genuinely unsafe.  Evacuating Mordor entirely (again... Why???) and then having a horde of people trying to get in because they thought they were going to Massive Attack was insane.  And given a lot of people basically abandoned ship around 10.30pm the crush at both the exit to the festival and the entrance to the Metro was pretty dangerous.   Conditions happen, most people will get that....but the contingencies have to be better. 
    • You'd think that something like bad weather was in the basics of festival planning. After the shitshow of Madrid, you'd think they'd learnt their lesson, apparently not...
