…getting better all the time, it can’t get no worse.
Yeah, Beatles lyrics. But It describes my feelings looking at the current Reading Festival lineup. Hell yeah it’s good. But with Glasto pulling out a blinder of a lineup, I wish i could’ve afforded tickets to both. They even have SPINAL FLIPPING TAP. How the hell did Eavis pull that out of the bag?!?!
Quiet, I need to content myself with what I already have. I’m seeing my favourite band ever, RADIOHEAD! they will be the best thing ever, I just know it. Plus, Arctic Monkeys and Kings of Leon, two other bands I’ve been dying to see live for a long time, are on the line-up. It’s pretty much a perfect set of headliners, I’m just wishing the rest of the line up gains some more, great additions. I already posted about the first lot of the lineup coming out, but there are some new additions, plus still more space on the already-epic looking bill.
Newbies include; Passion Pit, Metronomy, The Virgins Dananananakroyd, two sets from Alexisonfire, the Rakes, Lethal Bizzle and the Horrors. So Yeah, i’m pumped up about it, just hoping for a couple more, maybe Animal Collective? or Bon Iver, don’t say they dont have slow acoustic stuff because they’ve had Conor Oberst and Seasick Steve before, plus the other stages have not been revealed. For me, there is definitely going to be some heavy weighing up of options of what to see/hear.
Well, here are some mp3s from three of the attending bands;
Kings of Leon – Woo Hoo
Alexisonfire – Boiled Frogs
The Virgins – She’s Expensive
