Lineup 2018

1 thing I did dislike this year, don’t know if it’s new procedures or just because of the groups around us but on the wed/thurs we had security(grey vests) come over about 3-4 times just walking through our camp asking us to hand anything in we shouldn’t of had. It wasn’t an issue because we didn’t actually have anything we shouldn’t have but it was just a bit intimidating having 3 guys walking through asking what we had in my hands or what an empty balloon he’d find in between some tents next to ours was doing there. We were in brown so not as if it was rowdy either, I’m all for tightened security but just made us feel were being watched especially in the nights when they’d all have their little torches on us

This happened to me once on the Friday night all the way in the back end of white. Came right through our little seating area around the fire and didn't even say anything lmao.

Had this happen loads each year I've camped at Reading so I assumed it was the norm. Can be a bit of a mood killer.

    • I also dont think Deftones will tour next year.   But I think RIP will have both Foos and Blink and if SOAD fo festivals that will be your 3.
    • Bearing in mind the Maiden point could just be nothing. They should also get Sabaton on second bit if i was them with their stage show I wouldn't take it. It would have to be headline due to how Download program and they won't 
    • Nothing wrong about the lineup, which has been great over the last few years. But it just doesn't balance out my experience anymore.   Also, there seems to be a shift in the festival to cater towards US clients? This year felt like a 'cool' version of Coachella for some reason but I can't quite put my finger on what it is.   Maybe I'm just getting old.    Many locals get in for free either via friends of the organisation or just plainly using the QR codes multiple times. I had a chat with many of them over the weekend. They told me it is a 'thing' among locals. You just don't pay Primavera Sound
    • I'm not a Bond fan or anything, just a fella who will happily sit and watch a Bond film - so from that perspective I will say that Brosnan is my favourite, I really love all the ones he has done and can quite happily watch them over and over.   favourite individual film tho is On Her Majesty's Secret Service.   absolutely hate the Dalton ones - I used to think it was just the way he chose to play the character, for some reason he thought Bond should be a thoroughly unlikable person. but actually, Dalton plays this exact same character in every single thing I have ever seem him in... so I think he is either just a properly sh*t actor, or maybe he himself is just a thoroughly unlikable person.   dont really have any interest in any future ones tho... didnt really like the Craig ones.
