Just got back from Leeds, Placebo were AWESOME!!! absolutely unreal. The hives were tagically dissapointing, but the stripes, jurrasic 5, offsppring and the libertines were all dead good. Wasnt too impressed by goldfinger, mainly cos theyre not my brand of cha. The darkness were also awesome, say what you like about them, they put on a helluva show (c*nty c*nt)

I was there, but only for the first day. Camped anyway (wern't meant to on a day ticket) and got right royally pissed on thursday night. Friday was great. Lots of good bands... Reel Big Fish, Ash, The Wildhearts. The Offspring were incredible (much better than I expected), and the Darkness were absolutely brilliant too

I'll be there for all three days next year, so we'll plan a pissup at next year's festival

I went to Leeds. All the big bands were great, but did anyone see any of the smaller bands like dogs dies in hot cars and read yellow and my red cell? They were all also excellent.

​

I've seen My Red Cell before, when they supported Eighties Matchbox. TBH I thought they were terrible and generic...did they sing that "For Love and Hate, let's masterbate.." song?

They had a giant number 13 in the background covered in tinfoil. Imagine if when taking it outside a large crowd of shiny thing loving Magpies stole it-that would be an unlucky thing to see indeed.

my random discovery of the weekend came in the form of chromeo

i wandered into the dance tent and the duo were playing some damn fine synth pop electronica garble!
