+44
What a load of utter wank. Rock music anyone? Bar the Pumpkins and NIN, not a single good band on the Main Stage. And what the fuck is up with Razorlight headlining??? They have two albums, one of which is mediocre and the other is total shit.
Tickets also sold out in about a nanosecond. Probably owing to the intense quantity of mediocre and banal music on show. I was trying to get tickets from five minutes to the opening time until five past and got nothing. Oh well. Let's see who's playing at Download...

i couldnt get a ticket either
they do day tickets dont they? might just go for the sunday.
WHIIIIIT INTERPOL AND KINGS OF LEON AND ARCADE FIRE MATE. The rest are pap, makes me thankful I am leaving to go to Thailand! HOHO!
Smashing Pumpkins would be class to see.
Mate! Banal Mediocre Boring Toss-shite!
Yeah they do, and plus they always sell another wee bundle of tickets after the inital first batch.
You having a giraffe? Give me your postcode, I'm heavy decking you for your unessecary SLANDER!
For it to be slander, it has to be UNTRUE
I might be a bit too far to come all the way for a decking. Though I know Glaswegians like nothing more than a good fight
They're quite a good site for the line up etc.
I'm annoyed as We Are Scientists' are doing Reading. Grrrr. They didn't play last year, twats. I will see them at Rockness though.
Well it IS untrue. KOL and Interpol are amazing bands, and do NOT deserve to be shat on with perverse bunkum you are allowing your fingers to type!
I'm well coming to send you into chinatown, son. :razz:
interpol, maximo park, arcade fire, lcd soundsystem, css, subways + biffy clyro.
what a joke.
Woo, threats from a lairy northerner - I'm terrified :shocking:
Watch yer back, son.
you going to Reading then?
Leeds sunday is :
* Red Hot Chilli Peppers
* The Arcade Fire
* Bloc Party
* Panic! At The Disco
* Angels And Airwaves
The Download lineup is fucking awesome: Maiden, Dragonforce, Korn, Megadeth, Marilyn Manson, Machine Head, Slayer, Turbonegro, Velvet Revolver - the list of awesome bands goes on.
awesome line up aswell;
Modest Mouse, Mogwai, Explosions In The Sky, Apples In Stero, Yo La Tengo, Battles, Trans Am, Wilco, The Thermals, Built To Spill, Do Make Say Think, Shellac, Isis.
Just thought i'd let everyone know that has maybe given up
Anyway, what a fucking nightmare buying tickets this year. Got mine at last, with a coach package thingy. And they didn't sell out in 5 minutes, despite the fact it said they did. Tickets are still on sale on NME, my mate bought one about 10 mins ago!
Must say though, am well disappointed that RATM aren't headlining.. Thought they would be a definate.
Wow isn't he lucky spending a night camping on the streets of the 'Toon. Lucky bugger...
:yes: :thumb:
I couldn't get a fucking ticket last night either. I'm still going though, even if I have to resort to Ebay. Line up aint amazing but it's not really my sort of music anyway, I'm going mainly for the atmosphere and to have a good time. Chilli Peppers, Lost Prophets and Fall Out Boy will be quite good to see live though. Reading isn't really meant to be a strictly rock/metal fest like download these days anyway and besides festivals aren't really the best place to go if you're going just to see a band because you love them...why not just go to a gig where it's more intimate?
Festivals are just about having a laugh with your mates, getting wasted and then watching some bands play a few tunes, even if they're shit, when you're wasted you don't care.
got weekend tickets today!
lineup is pretty shit but itll be fun anyway, and still a few bands worth seeing... entershikari to see if they can actually play their instruments (probs not), interpol, chilis (just to say youve seen em), brand new, errrrr whoever else gets confirmed at a later date that's good :P
and to be fair i saw razorlight at reading a few years ago and theyre actually pretty good live
They still on sale somewhere? Where?!
They're talking about Leeds festival, as in Reading and Leeds festivals.
You just thought I was comparing nightlife in two completely different English cities?
