    Anyone going to be going?

    Smashing Pumpkins are headlining so now I have to go. Even though the majority of the other bands playing are terrible.. There are some other decent artists though - LCD Soundsystem, Bloc Party, Biffy Clyro, RHCP, Arcade Fire.. Sonic Youth and Courtney Love are rumoured to be playing too.

    Lots of terrible stuff though, but you can't have everything :/

    Smashing Pumpkins :eek: :eek: :eek: :D

    I have to say that they have an ace website! Not keen on the bands that played that I'd heard of, but many of them I'm unfamiliar with.

    I went to Leeds two years ago when the Pixies, Foo Fighters and Queens of the Stoneage all played. I think we're going to Reading this time though.
