summer festivals
 

ok, might be a topic on this but it aint on the front page so im doing another.

anyone going to any?

so far i bought tickets for the glade and roskilde. going roskilde in a camper van with some mates, should be ****ing brilliant. going to work the bar at missing near manchester and possibly work litter picking at the big chill.

wanted to go to v-fest, cos its 10 miles from my parents house, but weekend tickets sold out in 3 hours. then i wanted just a sunday ticket so i could see radiohead and beck but they sold out too. may try my luck with a tout.

roskilde: going to see bob dylan, guns 'n' roses, kanye west, and roger waters doing darkside of the moon (also arctic monkeys, franz ferdinand, morrisey, the streets, placebo)

where you going?

Re: summer festivals
 

I'm going to a festival at home as usual. It's a small one, but it hosts only well known bands in Norway. This year 'The Fabulous Thunderbirds' is playing, apparantly they were quite big in the 80's (when I ran around in Pampers). Anyone heard of them?

Re: summer festivals
 

never heard of them, but after a quick google

sounds interesting, might look into them.

anyway, it doesnt matter which bands are playing: its who you go with and how many drugs you take that counts.

Re: summer festivals
 

Not sure yet. Possibly Reading. And maybe Download as while the line-up isn't particularly inspired I know a few people going.

Re: summer festivals
 

one i wouldnt want to go to is leeds, they always have a riot. need to chill out oop north.

Re: summer festivals
 

I might go to Beautiful Days, but apart from that I don't think I'll bother.

Re: summer festivals
 

leeds: all the awesome music of reading, except with another stage, a better view of the main stage, and an arena that can fit more than a dozen people comfortably.

Re: summer festivals
 

If I'm not working the Fringe I'll probably end up at Leeds but can't see me going to anything else. Have been spending more money on specific gigs than festivals in the past couple years, festival line-ups have recently not really tickled my admittedly eclectic fancy

Re: summer festivals
 

i've got tickets to see foo fighters supported by the strokes in june but other than that I have no festival plans :(

Re: summer festivals
 

ima going to leeds fest. Since its the 'in' thing up here and last year it was awesome. Also i know about 200 people going, saying that i have a feeling tickets are gonna be **** hard to get

Re: summer festivals
 

Ill be going to reading festival as i have done for the last 4 years
I probably would have liked to go to T in the park - awesome line-up
Download would be good but doesnt it have the diversity of reading/leeds where u can always find something you like

Re: summer festivals
 

v sold out in 3 hours when in previous years they have been on sale for ages. that could be due to no glastonbury + radiohead playing. however i expect leeds/reading tickets will probably sell out on the day of release.

Re: summer festivals
 

I may go to download but untill i check the line-up i won't say for sure. I'm tempted just to go because i hear Avenged Sevenfold are supporting Guns N Roses... although i havn't confirmed that yet

Re: summer festivals
 

ive been told 1st april and 3rd april for ticket selling to leeds, anyone know for sure? dont wanna miss out

Re: summer festivals
 

I know that it's the 2nd of april now.

so your options have decreased by 50%

Re: summer festivals
 

oh wow its april already, shit better get a move on fs

Re: summer festivals
 

Pity glasto isnt on this year :(

Re: summer festivals

Re: summer festivals
 

i probably go here

Re: summer festivals
 

I'm going to Hultsfred. Korn, Kent, The Cardigans, Backyard Babies and The Soundtrack of our lives are pretty attractive.

Re: summer festivals
 

I shall (hopefully) be going to Reading, possiby with my housemates.

Re: summer festivals
 

its hardly guns n' roses anymore, more of an axl rose tribute band and hes a bit of a cock to be honest
better off seeing velvet revolver with more guns n' roses people and mainly slash :D

Re: summer festivals
 

glade, and possibly sonar (spain) and exit (serbia).

Re: summer festivals
 

Going to see Tool, Placebo, Arctic Monkeys, We Are Scientists, Death Cab for Cutie, Depeche Mode, Coheed and Cambria, and Muse at the Quart Festival. Was hoping to see Hot Hot Heat, Nine Black Alps, Yellowcard and Lostprophets too, but it doesn't look like they're coming :\

Re: summer festivals
 

oh yeah, nearly forgot, will probably go to d:percussion in manchester catslefield again. taking my own booze this time tho, robbing bastards had me over a barrel last year!

Re: summer festivals
 

Polka festival in my hometown. We're the largest Czech communtiy in Texas, I believe.
