2013 Lineup

[lightning1000]

I hate all 3 glasto headliners and only like 1 sub on pyramid (nick cave). Only other acts I'm interested in are the xx, smashing pumpkins and editors. Think ill be letting my ticket go back on sale to somebody who'll appreciate it more.

I go to Reading and Glastonbury but I go for different things.

At Reading, I'll pretty much see whoever I want and not deviate from my plan. At Glasto I'll see the essential bands that I really want to see (not very many usually), but other than that I'll go with the flow and have a laugh with my friends. I love the general vibe of the place.

It's hard to say which I prefer because I like them for different reasons. Easy for me to say because I have the luxury of being able to afford to go to both.

Plus, well I live very near Reading so the idea of not going is just a bit silly.

I personally love the glasto line up, there are 30 acts there i would love to see compared to the 25 here. I'll try go to glasto if i can pick up a ticket on resale but I'm still delighted with whats at Reading (NiN mainly)

I just don't understand the hype for Glastonbury.

some quality bookings dotted about: (Nick Cave, Portishead, Public Enemy in particular) but other than Rolling Stones and the aforementioned nothing you couldn't have seen plenty of times in the past year or two. Nothing of real significance, not many notable exclusives.

Comparing the two. First time headliner Biffy Vs. Mumford . Biffy win hands down for depth of catalogue.

Nine Inch Nails, System of A Down Vs. Portishead and Nick Cave. clearly shows the difference in the festivals but both stand up against each other and in a festival environment surely NIN/ SOAD win.

First year since I can remember that Glasto lineup has been that dissapointing.

Think I'm gonna press pass for Glasto.

Portishead aren't subbing, they are 2nd stage headers against the band that R&L fans want over nearly every other bar Blur.

Worst mistake you'll make.

Rich **** .

I'm glad I didn't get the "glasto vibe" when I went tho, otherwise I'd be in your boat exactly, with maybe less of a chilled attitude of spending overall around 600 pounds on doing similar things for 2 dirty weeks haha

*hides Download 2013 ticket...*

To be fair, I just spend pretty much all of my disposable income on festivals and gigs.

The Glasto line up is really average. I would never choose to go there for the line up. Reading has by far the better acts playing this year hands down in my opinion. I would love to go to glasto at some point for the experience but would never go for the music.

Lol you obviously are single. That's fair enough, I've always done 1 fest a year to give abit of space between them

[thesecretingredientiscrime]

Yellow, you might like to know Tyler and Earl are playing Glastonbury

Honestly why do some people act as if Glastonbury is heaven on earth.

[thelionsmouth]

I think the Glastonbury lineup is good, over 20 acts i'd want to see compared to the 10-12 at Reading. Shame my mate booked his Reading ticket straight away.. *facepalm*
