The next time they play they will headline the main stage. Their crowd was absolutely massive. Surprisingly, the crowd wasn't full of tools, same for Eminem. I was shocked. Everyone around me at Leeds was really chatty and friendly, asking if me and my friends had had a good weekend and asking where we are from etc. Best crowd of the weekend for me in terms of the quality of people.

C&S killed it though.

Thats because fans of D & B (ok I know C & S played their commercial live stuff) like fans of heavier music, are friendly and there for the music. Its the poppy top 40 types who cause the problems, in my experience.

But I agree with you about quality of people! A real mix. Was awesome.

Pleasantly surprised by the crowd at Eminem and C&S, thought the crowd was less knobbish than on Friday to be honest. Every was chatty and if they bumped into you they apologised, had a few conversations with people.

I was offered a Maoam by a total stranger. I said I don't take sweets from strangers. I don't think it was a maoam.

at Leeds I was kind of about 20 rows back to the right, and the everyone around me and my mates was a dickhead, after moshing to SOAD the day before, I was actually terrified of going into one at C&S, there was some really fat Frodo looking bloke who kept running really fast and nutting everyone round the edge, and someone tried to piss on everyone else. Worst crowd I've ever been in, may have just got unfortunate and had all the dicks in that bit though

Eminem's crowd was a lot better, we moved to the left of the stage

While in the crowd for C&S I didnt encounter too many dickheads but that may have been because I was quite far back. During the weekend though, we saw/heard/met so many utter twats that said they were just at leeds for them and eminem.

I have to say the crowd at Reading was terrible. To be fair I was quite far in, in front of the second barrier but the amount of rowdy girls who would just punch anything on sight was unreal. So much so that after trying to have a good time and standing my ground, 15 minutes in a group of girls started swearing and pushing me and then full scale lobbed me into a massive pit where I was knocked out cold after being booted in the head. Luckily two guys carried me out whilst I was unconscious and a nice couple who were waiting for Eminem got the medics and sorted me out.

It was singlehandedly the most terrifying thing to ever happen to me at a gig and I've been jumping in moshpits to mental, punk and hardcore bands for over 15 years.

Truly awful.

    • yes, but it will be called a care tax...much nicer name...and they will bin inheritance tax which no one likes even though most people don't pay it....and it will be used to pay for your granny. Burnham is obviously the saviour and will win labour another landslide because he's nice northern lad and not some sir c**t from surrey.
    • Hey, I correctly predicted the entire Bizkit Main Stage day months in advance 😝
    • Its just going to be another dementia tax isn't it? The issue is this is going to be seen as a continuation of the labour government that have already raised taxes 1000% above manifesto promises.
    • One thing that Burnham has been talking about is scrapping inheritance tax and replace it with a social care levy ... which would be less progressive, but might be a good idea if was a solution for the social care crisis. Would need to sell it well to a public who would prefer not to pay more tax.
    • Maybe you should put your name forward to be Burnham's chancellor.
