The Vines have cancelled their appearance at the Reading and Leeds Festivals, "due to lead singer Craig Nicholls needing to rest and recuperate following a mentally and physically demanding period."

Bit of a shame, eh? Seems the poor luv has found not working an eight-hour or more day like most folks and having a rock'n'rock lifestyle instead all too much. There's no news as yet as to any possible replacement, but we'll of course have the details as soon as there is.

Reading and Leeds Festivals take place at Little Johns Farm, Richfield Avenue, Reading, Berkshire, and Bramham Park, nr Leeds, West Yorkshire, both from 27th-29th August 2004.

Bands confirmed for Reading and Leeds includes headliners The Darkness, The White Stripes, and Green Day, plus The Offspring, Ash, The Hives, Morrissey, The Libertines, Franz Ferdinand, 50 Cent, Lostprophets, The Streets, Placebo, and many more.
