Reading and Leeds Festival (Carling Weekend)

[Brown, Jon Brow]

I've just got back from the Leeds Festival and I've got to say I've had a cracking time.

The Red Hot Chili Peppers were out of this world! :!: and The Smashing Pumpkins were....erm.. smashing!! :D There was something amazingly hypnotic about watching Billy Corgan performing live.

Razorlight, Arcade Fire, Bloc Party and Kings of Leon put up good shows put I was more impressed by some lesser known bands. A Russian 'Folk' band called the GoGol Bordello's really got the crowd going.

A band I think is one to look out for in the future is MuteMath. I reckon they could be a new Radiohead.

Ahhhh..Now for a shower :o

Please don't make me insanely jealous by telling me you saw NIN... my friend did and it just about ruined my day! :D

Sorry but I'm afraid I did see NIN, they played before the Pumpkins :uhoh:

was that the first time you have been to leeds, i remeber when i went 2 years ago and saw some amazing bands. It was my first and so far only proper concert i have been to. I also saw nine in nails that year and thought they where great.
