    Coming round to festival season, so any who plans to go where?

    I've allready got an Early-Bird ticket to Reading, with the intention of camping in orange again.

    As for rumour, appartly Kings Of Leon and AC/DC headline? And Slipnot playing the 2nd slot on the sunday again...

    I'll be going to Reading cos I live here, so it makes sense. Possibly Latitude again if I can find someone to go with. Mates trying to make me go to Glastonbury but I just don't want to.

    My girlfriend and I are going to Reading again as we have earlybird tickets, but we are staying in a B&B nearby rather than camping :rock:

    I'm just gutted they moved it from Yarmouth as it was just down the road from me then.

    I'm with Hex, Reading and Latitude :)

    Not sure if that's a good or a bad thing :p

    T in The Park for me again, got early bird tickets, Hopefully the line up will be pretty good, be hard pushed to beat rage from last year though.

    Probably nothing this year, unless any of them are particularly amazing. Even ATP is a bit meh this year.
    Might have some fairly big stuff near me hopefully if we can get it sorted though ;)

    The last two years I've worked at

    Connect -
    Fantastic atmosphere, very chilled out, lovely scenery, a little bit different from your usual festival.

    Belladrum - very child friendly, eco orientated , but still magic fun :D

    Rockness - THE party festival - tons of good acts, crowd always up for a good laugh.

    Hopefully I'll be working them all again this year, good times :D

    Time for a bump really! Line-ups come out tonight for Reading & Leeds, with tickets on sale @ 7pm.. I got mine early this year to avoid the traditional dowened websites and fake vendors.

    We're gonna try and get some Reading weekend tickets regardless of the lineup later- got quite a few mates who are up for it so could be a decent bunch of us going if we can get them!
