I live within 1 mile of Donington Park and I f**king hate download....... Musics great if thats your thing, and I'm not a NIMBY, live and let live and all........ but 10's of thousands of trashed and smacked up people, pissing in the streets, and leaving their litter and shit everywhere. And I mean everywhere. Castle Donington looks like a rubbish dump in just a few days. Everyone buggers off after 5 hazy days, but it takes a month to clean up the shit.
At least you'll enjoy it !!

Might have been mine, I'm pretty sure I brought it with me last year. Not going this year though: we could only afford one festival this year and Sonisphere has both a better lineup and a better layout.
Add posh girls bragging about their "straight As" and this could also describe Reading.

It did used to be good when it was one day and I went to most of them but I really enjoy the three day festival. Loads more bands and stages and the layout is better than it used to be. I'm taking my caravan to a site nearby so will hopefully get some decent kip this year and not feel like death by Sunday. At 46 I'm not too sure how many of these I have left before I decide I'm too old so determined to make the most of it!
Glastonbury is also awash with Tarquins and daddy's little princesses but the atmosphere is a lot better... Reading et al seem to be full of idiots that think setting tents on fire is fun.
True, very true.
But I think Reading's speciality is stroppy black clad truculent male teens.
Virgin was just full of chavs when I last went. Horrible festival, in fact festival is not the correct term. It's just a huge corporate gig in a field.
