Max Quinn Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 So who heres going to reading or leeds and on what days?Any tips on stuff to take people might not have though of? What/Who you looking forward to the most? Been Before? What camp you planning on being in? If your over 18 fancy buying me beer? Post it all here. I'm camping at Reading from thursday till monday, getting the coach there and back as soon as i've got my GCSE results haha, good times. I can't wait to take advantage of the cold Carling amnesty haha, not the nicest of beers but when i'm trading cans of sainsburys lager (4 cans for 88p) straight for cold cans of Carling i certainly wont be complaining haha.

I'm still gonna take some sainsburys pikie cans though lol.Can you enlighten more on the whole different camps thing? We're getting there on thursday around 4/5, wanna be as near as poss to the arena but want a camp with decent nightlife, where dyou reccomend? Just walk as far in as we can till we start running out of spaces?. They'll be about 20 of us but were all in 3 or 4 man tents pretty much, pitching them in a circle facing in would be the best but doubt thats gonna happen.Ahh ok Well thats another expense haha.

boon racoon Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 (edited) I'm going Thursday but loads of mates are going tomorrow to set up camp etc. Looks like it's well needed too!Gonna be pretty much be on the lock up stage all of Friday..apart from Enter Shikari I think and maybe Patrick Wolf and Interpol if I can catch em.Coming back to Bristol after the bands Friday evening cos i've got a wedding to go to on Saturday (not ideal!) but least I get a shower and a shit and stuff.Going back early Sunday morning and spending all day wide-eyed on the Radio 1 stage.Give us a shout if you see me As for buying beer..there's a tonne of offies outside the campsite who pretty much don't give a shit. Just remember you can't take in glass bottles unless they're well hidden. or just decant into plastic.Should be amazing as usual! P.S This is Reading. Hope to get there about 10am same as every year, and yeh battered before if not shortly after 10! Edited August 21, 2007 by the boon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
