[Quark]

I've seen Bastille a couple of times at GF. Full disclosure - I quite enjoyed it. Both times. So there!

Worse than that, Download has Tool. ?

Can't quite believe Tool are only the second smelliest act headlining a major UK festival in one year.

Edit: Smelliest crowd tho.

Must admit i've seen them both times as well, it's one of my flaws.

Only if you don't like patchouli oil.

I'm now officially old since Reading festival (the first one I ever went to as a camper at the tender age of 18) has booked a headliner whose name I've never even heard of.

It's ok, I make sure I'm drunk so it's fine. Appreciate the concern though

Kasabian are better than the Arctic Monkeys. Fight me.

Jeeze, that's grim.

There's people on this forum who talk about how the Pyramid field bouncing around to Kasabian was 'dull' and that watching Thom Yorke mumble his way through track after track 'went off', smh.

An upvote for bravery

Heard too much of them on the radio, annoys me. But things tend to improve while intoxicated in a crowd and hearing songs you haven't heard for quite a while (thankfully)...

Doing nothing to eschew the stereotypes attributed to Kasabian fans.

There's nothing lamer than people saying "that Reading and Leeds line up makes me feel old, I've never heard of any of them!"

I therefore have no comment about this years Reading and Leeds line up.

First two were solid 7/10s for me. West Ryder a bit worse, Velociraptor! worse than that, 48:13 honestly one of the worst albums I've heard, and For Crying Out Loud a tiny bit better than that. I'd rank them as follows:

1. Kasabian (7/10)

2. Empire (7/10)

3. West Ryder Pauper Lunatic Asylum (6/10)

4. Velociraptor! (5/10)

5. For Crying Out Loud (4/10)

6. 48:13 (3/10)

Why am I ranking Kasabian albums on eFests? I don't know. I did actually listen to them all again earlier this year in the lead up to Mad Cool as I was giving a fair chance to all the acts playing.

Generous.

My dad had a ticket to Radiohead at Old Trafford, watched the start of their Glasto set, told me it sounded like funeral music and then didn't come to the Old Trafford gig (not for that reason but I don't think he wanted to go after seeing the Glasto set).

Why is it Leeds and Reading now? Is the northern leg the strongest of the two now?

Lolz.

On a serious note, a good mate of mine in around 2009 tried to tell me Hard-Fi were better than AM.

Every year that yellow poster comes out and every year I’ve heard of fewer and fewer names on it.

Who the hell are half these people?
