Yeah I am.

Oh, and check to all of them :P

I'll stop with this before I wind everyone up too much. And before I start dignifying lists like Andre's :sick:

Not many seeing as I mainly save gig money to see my 'must-sees' and catch smaller bands at festivals:

Pearl Jam, Arcade Fire (not for long), DFA1979, Weezer, The Strokes, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Pulp and Black Sabbath.

And then I need to see a load of defunct bands/artists too, but let's not get into that.

Well I'm talking about must-sees. There's a lot more I'd like to if I had infinite money.

I don't follow.

There are lots more bands I'd like to see that I haven't (eg. Pearl Jam) that I didn't list in my must-sees. I thought the "not many" and explanation in your post was a bit misleading as it implied other people's hit-lists had been all bands, not just their must-sees.

Acts that I want to see that I haven't yet.

Neil Young, Barbra Streisand and mercury rev(are they still together?)

Mercury Rev was the 1st act I saw at my 1st fest, they were ok but I did enjoy their guitarist deciding to smash up his guitar whilst on his kness making a christ symbol at the end.

We parted company after the fest aswel,

I think Reading might be the wrong festival for you.

There's no such thing as being 'complete'

    • Wednesday is a nice addition imo
    • Kronenberg in a tent as well IIRC but Brooklyn Pilsner was easier to get without queueing and was everywhere across the festival.
    • I think they'll end up doing something due to pressure and bad PR. Maybe they do a discount code for next year or bar credit or something along those lines.    I agree though. I acknowledge that the lineup is huge but surely you can't cancel 33% of the headliners and not reimburse in some way. Their insurance will probably cover their fees for MA, Doja, Bad Gyal and Mac DeMarco due to force majeure. 
    • Looks like nothing for weekend ticket holders. You'd expect a goodwill gesture. 
    • Enough has been covered about how much of a sh*t show that was, so I'll just say, Massive Attack and it's relationship with this festival (and potentially me) are f**king cursed.    They were announced in 2020 when I first got excited about seeing them. They were subsequently on the poster for 21, 22 and now 26. This time I was in actually in the crowd close to the stage waiting for them twice haha. I give up!
