"118 - The Official topic for Reading Festival chat"

Been home for about an hour or so now. Feeling rather tired and so won't write a long essay about what time I caught the bus and how long it took to pitch my tent or anything like that which I know you don't want to read. I'm also not going to mention much about the bands for now, apart from saying System Of A Down was amazing.

People, here is a place that when you get back you can talk about the bands, the camp site antics, the drink and drugs. The festival.

Anyone check out "Dave's Rave" last night in the green campsite? Afro Dave and Naked Dave were ledgends!

Also what happen involving Hulk Hogan on the donut stand? For those of you who wern't there, A guy on one of the donut stands looked like Hulk Hogan and apparently a mob of people (I heard about 250) came to see him when his shift started at around 1AM. Not sure what happened but the next night about eight police men and woman stood in a semi-circle around the stand and more were close by. Hulk Hogan was nowhere to be seen. So what actually happened?

I'm tired, so that's it for now.

Darn I've missed the start of it.

Not to worry the website says I can view it all again at the weekend. Great.

Reading programmes start tonight at 8 on MTV2...

Yeah King Prawn sure did rock. Been lucky enough to see them twice in the space of eight days as I saw them supporting Reel Big Fish the Friday before Reading.

Anyone get a visit from the guy with the purple foot?

We got up to late and couldn't get anywhere near the concrete jungle stage. We heard Funeral for a Friend but went after that because we couldn't see anything, darn. I wanted to see Poison the Well too.

Oh well we got to seee Cave In who totally rocked if only there were more people there into them, the crowd was pretty dire.

Yup, I most definitely have that. Been coughing up greeners since I got back on Monday...

Like you really wanted to know that.

Also, anyone else see Winnebago Deal? The future. Mclusky also ruled. As did most people I saw on Concrete Jungle. Pennywise. Oh Yes. I was so sweaty that after sleeping Saturday night, I awoke Sunday morning to find I hadn't dried. Instead I was still immensely sweaty, as were my clothes, and it had infact soaked into my sleeping bag.

Like you really wanted to know that.

Listening to Thrice - Under A Killing Moon. Pit @ Concrete Jungle went insane when they played this :D

Does anyone esle get sick after reading?

I've been going for ages now and every year after I get back I have the worst chesty cough for a week or so. Sucks :(

Damn dusty reading

King Prawn rocked!

We're gonna smoke some sh*t...

I was camped in orange D. Twas nice. Spent most of Sunday night / Monday morn wandering around with 'spikey mikey' (called that because he had a mohican) whose B'Day it was on Sunday. We had a beer bong, some 'manly man fuel' as he called it consisting of snakebite and blackcurrent, vodka, carling, caffeine tablets, sugar, vodka ice, absinthe, some 80% stuff some random bloke gave us and bud. tasty.

We were also asking if we could see peoples axe wounds, and were on a mission to find a carrot, a cheese grater, and a blue bottle. Also a talking blue parrot that could say "axe wound".

Very fun :D

I heard Primal Scream were in between two nu-metal acts

hahaha

We were in the brown camp, which was pretty far away from the festival arena, but not too far away. 20 minute walk i spose.
