Better late than never eh?

So.... August bank holiday weekend I went to my 4th Reading festival on the trot and apart from maybe the first it was one of the best i've been to, at least in terms of having a laugh. I went with some friends from home who I havent seen in a while cos of living and working here on my todd most of the year and all that... and i can safely say shits and giggles were had.

I saw;

Alexisonfire
Friendly Fires
Florence + The Machine
Jamie T
Kings of Leon
Arctic Monkeys
Prodigy
Ian Brown
Enter Shikari
The Maccabees
Deadmau5
Crystal Castles
Bloc Party
Radiohead

I've seen a lot of the bands that played before, but still missed (from being to drunk, forgetting or promising to see other bands with friends) Them Crooked Vultures, The Bronx, Rival Schools, MSTRKRFT and Bombay Bicycle Club... which is a bit gutting.... but theres always next year.... and i already have tickets

Highlights were;

Prodigy
Alexisonfire
Deadmau5
Friendly Fires
Ross losing all of his shoes.
Ross being abused by passers by after falling asleep on the track
The campsite assistant who just fucking loved life!
The bloke who absolutely stacked it when pretending to bowl a cricket ball at breakneck speed
Discovering "the cumberland" from banger bros, the greatest and most reasonably priced festival meal of all time...
...and going to the silent disco for the first time in in the 4 years i've been going!

Pics follow, enjoy x




There's some more pics somewhere.... i'll put em up when i find them. Peace el Hombres! x
