Leeds / Reading Festival 2011 Lineup Reaction

[FunkChicks08]

It was an amazing weekend! I'm still wearing my wristbands! xD

[44pearl182]

Was good!

[Pocko22]

the lineup turned out good when i avoided all the boring indie acts. btw the strokes might as well have had cardboard cut outs on stage and played a cd over the speakers.

[trentsmate]

@Pocko22

Shame really, i like the strokes but heard they couldn't give a toss about [playing their music.

[kittylovesx]

You missed out Pulp! They were incredible at Leeds! =D

[Bethanieanne1993]

it was an amazing line up!! especially with muse and 30seconds to mars!! and MCR :D

[JenzoDelacour]

I thought it was an amazing line up too haha

[trentsmate]

@JenzoDelacour

I'm glad someone agrees with me haha

[Dancovan25]

sorry but two door cinema club pigeon detectives and noah and the whale are enough for me!

[trentsmate]

@Dancovan25

Did you go this year? :)

[Dancovan25]

@trentsmate YES!

[Joe11yeah]

Why didn't you read out PULP?! They were one of the best bands there.

[trentsmate]

@Joe11yeah

No idea bud, regret it now. Heard they were awesome.

[MrBeatlesfan]

I search Reading Festival 2011, and this is what I get.

[trentsmate]

@MrBeatlesfan

Sadly yes.

Isn't the BBC doing live coverage this year? Might be able to find some stuff on I-Player.

[MrBeatlesfan]

@trentsmate Yeah, they did coverage. Too bad you didn't get to go, watching it, it seemed like a very good festival.

[trentsmate]

@MrBeatlesfan

I'm really gutted i didn't go, heard great things. Ended up going to y-not festival....feeder, maximo park, the rifles, miles kane and plenty all for £65 for the weekend. Had a right laugh. I Want to do a big fest next year.

[rockypog]

your hair is sexy as fuck.

[heavymetalizbest]

Hahaha no-one knows what good music is here!!

[trentsmate]

@heavymetalizbest

Considering your youtube name is HEAVYMETALlizbest I think I can guess why you're not a big fan of the line up :)

Go to download this year? The lineup was pretty awesome.

[heavymetalizbest]

@trentsmate The friday isnt bad but the rest is :/ and yes i did was fucking greatt!!!

[J4Y86]

The line ups shit!!!! Still sat here with my reading band on oh well Nero Saturday now thas a pure eargasum

[trentsmate]

@J4Y86

Nero's pretty sick. Not them live tho.

[Bab26bab]

I'll be having a three day long eargasm starting friday!! :D

P.S you missed out so many of the BETTER bands like BMTH, The Blackout etc ;)

[trentsmate]

@Bab26bab

I went to Y-Not festival thios year...Feeder, Maximo Park, The Rifles, Sonic Boom Six, Viva Brother, Danananakroid and Maximo Park were all among the lineup and it was only £65 ;)

Although with all that said I still would love to go to Leeds this year, not a fan of BMTH and not heard much of the blackout but yes I did miss a load of good bands off.

Have a good un this year!

[Muttley196]

Still not sold out, just bagged weekend with camping for £100 on ebay mwah

[trentsmate]

@Muttley196

That's fricking awesome!

[sirtheory1]

you never mentioned rise against, taking back sunday, jimmy eat world or the blackout!

[trentsmate]

@sirtheory1

I do like Jimmy Eat World, not a massive fan of the others though.

[deathspasm9]

2009 was shite

[BajuriProduction]

"this might be the best Leeds line up...bla bla bla.."?? dude..Leeds 2009 was sick!!! Radiohead, Prodigy, Arctic Monkeys, Kings of Leon..

[ArcherDoido]

MUSE MUSE MUSE MUSE MUSE MUSE MUSE MUSE

[Sophiawhite3]

Reading Festival without FUNERAL FOR A FRIEND is NOT Reading Festival

[trentsmate]

@Sophiawhite3

They were awesome at Leeds 09

[poolmaster18]

rise against best there!

[CinematicallyUnhappy]

proper good line up.

pretty sure tickets haven't sold out, yet...

[GreedySpoon]

not sold out yet mate got mine last night.

bit of a rubbish line-up but meh... going for the atmosphere really ;)

[madmamadog]

lets welcome the newborn!

[trentsmate]

@madmamadog

Amazing song!

[bekwarh]

the tickets aren't even sold out. well reading ones are still on sale.

[trentsmate]

@bekwarh

Really? Thats crazy..in 09 they sold out straight away.

[bekwarh]

@trentsmate yeah last year they sold out straight away as well.

[MuseofCydonia09]

I'm only going, because Muse are headlining. I will watch some other bands.

[MrGeewiz1]

I'm going on my own as i couldnt miss what Muse have planned

[trentsmate]

@MrGeewiz1

you do right dude, you'll have a great time and meet loads of great drunk people!

[MrGeewiz1]

@trentsmate Yeah can't wait, i've only got the Sunday for Muse. Don't like any of the other bands tbh and i've seen The Strokes and MCR before. I'm more worried about trying to piss in a bottle lol so i dont have to leave the crowd when trying to get closer and closer to the front before Muse take to the stage. So want to hear Hyper Music

[GreedySpoon]

@MrGeewiz1 you going reading then? Muse are friday at leeds ;)

[MrGeewiz1]

@GreedySpoon Yeah i wanted to see them at Reading just so i can record the performance or watch it off youtube. I'm kinda looking forward to Elbow aswell as i've seen them support Muse back in 2003 plus have met them so would be cool to watch them before Muse

[SynysterSykes]

It is beast ,especially the strokes and muse ,I got my tickets today :D

Btw you forgot to mention pulp

[trentsmate]

@SynysterSykes

Yer just realised. i should have mentioned them Jarvis Cocker is ace.

[museforever95]

MUSEEEE! MUSEEE! MUSSSEEE! FRIDAY, LEEDS. BE THERE!

[trentsmate]

@museforever95

They're playing Origin of Symmetry in it's entirity. Best Muse album by far, fantastic album.

[MrGeewiz1]

@trentsmate i've got tickets to go on the sunday and i'm only going to see Muse just so i can hear all the Origins songs. I don't even like any other band going that day ha. Will go and see elbow though as i've met them and watched them support Muse back in 2003 though

[museforever95]

@trentsmate I KNOWWWW! IT IS THE BEST ALBUM! Haha, you've been doing your research!:} Origin of Symmetry is their most experimental album they've done!

[trentsmate]

@museforever95

I was about 10 years old when it came out and was one of my favourite albums back then, it's definately their best work to date.

[museforever95]

@trentsmate Haha, you're afew years older than me then! I was only like 6 hahaa:L

You shoulod get a job on a radio station, your voice is pure gold mate!

[trentsmate]

@museforever95

thanks dude :) means a lot!

[museforever95]

@trentsmate no problem man!:} Goodluck for getting tickets next year!xx

[dodge321]

This video made me cringe so much!! i hope no one you know ever sees this....

[trentsmate]

@dodge321

Sadly this being my second watcheed video it's quite a possibility that all my loved ones have seen this.

LOL

[tommyboi9]

DEFTONES ARE THE BEST FUCKING BAND THERE!

[PsychoSeal1]

Too many shit indie bands

Needs Blink-182 headlining again !

[trentsmate]

@PsychoSeal1

I heard they were ace last year. Did you see them?

[PsychoSeal1]

@trentsmate Yeah dude! tbh they were my sole reason for going, HUGE Blink fan here lol, you going this year ?

[trentsmate]

@PsychoSeal1

I could'nt afford it so I'm going to Y-Not festival instead....a lot cheaper :)

[Derpaherpa123]

The Strokes are going. Your argument is invalid

[trentsmate]

@Derpaherpa123

The Strokes are amazing.

[jeffmx211]

shitest line up ever

[trentsmate]

@jeffmx211

Debatable... not amazing but in my opinion better than last years.

[foamykitten]

hellooo :) well since you've prob gone before, i got some questionss (its my first time btw) I really really want to see Midnight Beast but i only have day tickets. So, how long before they play should i be at the festival republic tent you think? Oh! and what time should i get to the festival in general, are there queues for wristband exchange or even just getting into the arena?

[trentsmate]

@foamykitten

Why hello there :)

The festival republic stage wasn't the busiest stage in 2009 and I doubt it's gonna be any different this year. I recommend getting there as early as possible.

I did the full weekend back in 2009 and I got there 6:30am thursday morning and it was really busy then! Took us about an hour to get in to get our wristbands.

My advice is get there early and make a full day of it! Get to the stage early before the act you want to see and get a good spot :)

[foamykitten]

@trentsmate Okidokes! Thanks for your help :)

[crashimploder]

Im going :P

[trentsmate]

@crashimploder

Lucky man! :)

[kattyemoed]

It's not fair, I had no money when the tickets came on sale so I am also not going :'( x

[trentsmate]

@kattyemoed

Nooooo! :(

[kattyemoed]

@trentsmate bad times :( x

[finsam98]

MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE

P!ATD

THE BLACKOUT

BMTH

SHIKARI

THOSE ARE SOME OF THE BEST BANDS PLAYING READING & LEEDS FESTIVALS

[Derpaherpa123]

@finsam98 My chemical romance are so shit its scary

[finsam98]

@Derpaherpa123 thats your opinion. personally, im quite a big fan of the band and its music, and im seein them at reading, and whilst everyones alowwed an opinion, i'd appreciate it if you kept it to yourself, cause others mignt not gree? and also, i havent said anything negative towards you,or about your music taste, so if youve got nothing nice to say,lets shutting the fuck up would be appreciated :D (not being horrible or nothing)

[Derpaherpa123]

@finsam98 Why do you think I care about your opinion. They are shit. End of argument.

[trentsmate]

@finsam98

Shikari are amazing live. They do a great show.

[cSlade576]

EXCUSE ME SIR! in your mentioning of god bands you seemed to have not mentioned 30 seconds to mars. maybe you were saving them for a 'great bands' video, but you should have said them. :P

[trentsmate]

@cSlade576

I actually like 30 seconds to mars have you know ;)

But i probably wouldn't see them at leeds....don't hurt me!

[cSlade576]

@trentsmate you're lucky i live so far away or i might have to hunt you down and hurt you. :P

[MeTaLMoNkEyLeYrOy]

Bought a ticket in hope leaked lineup was faKE... OH WELL I'll see Muse atleast and there are couple of goods bands in the nme tents on the friday. Giving rise against and the offspring a try. Overall v. dissapointed nothing on last year, which I went to I think that was a one-off

[trentsmate]

@MeTaLMoNkEyLeYrOy

I heard Muse are playing "Origin of Symetery" all the way through...if they do so that would be awesome...By far it's their best album!

[Gtheblade123]

u missed interpol?

[lukastavich]

@HIM4l1fe

Firstly, may I congratulate you on your love of HIM, I too am a devoted fan and love all their stuff. Anyways I saw Enter Shikari in 2009 on the main stage and then again in 2010 on the Radio 1 stage at Reading. I firmly believe that they were much better on the Radio 1 stage - later, smaller crowd, cramped, sweaty, darkness = great light show. All these things added up to a fantastic performance from St Albans finest!

[MixedVegetablez]

FUCKING NO WAY!?

[brainstew90]

I love how you only name all of the mainstream big indie fag bands and nothing from the friday, clearly shows how narrow minded you are and it clearly shows how little you know about music, idiot. Look at download festival, thats where the real bands are at.

[trentsmate]

@brainstew90

Fridays stage doesn't appeal to me that much thats all, don't get me wrong I do like 30 Seconds to Mars and New Found Glory but bands like BMTH just don't appeal to me...i don't think that's called being narrow minded...i think that is what's called having an opinion.

I've seen the download lineup and its amazing...SOAD...say no more.

I doubt you can catagorise Madness or The Offspring though as mainstream indie fag bands. I think someone went a little over the top there ;)

[Fiona221293]

Bloody amazin' line up! -3

[jtnjtnjtnjtn]

Great line up except the main stage on the MCR day going to be great 

[Sofyeah]

I'm sorry, all your accents are amazing Joe. It's too amazing. Just climb over the fence Mr. Steel! x.

[trentsmate]

@Sofyeah

Hahaha...i'll try :)

[Sofyeah]

@trentsmate II expect to hear of your gallant attempt! Also, I'm finally uploading a new video. You proud?

[trentsmate]

@Sofyeah

WTH?

You never upload videos! :) Can't wait

[Sofyeah]

@trentsmate I know right. Don't get too excited :P

[AlexBarton94]

Mate it's a fucking right line up! From Sheffffffffff!

[trentsmate]

@AlexBarton94

Good lad! totally agree

[xameliaxxxx]

cage the elephant are AMAZING! i'm going haha, i thought didn't think it was good at first at all :/ but the more i look i like it. although i don't think its as good as last year. i cant wait :D although haven't got early birds. why don't you get tickets on ebay they have them going on there?

[trentsmate]

@xameliaxxxx

I wasn't a big fan of last years line up...not including Limp Bizkit :)

There's just so many good bands this year...be good to see cage the elephant if i somehow get a ticket. Got to scrape some money together tho :(

[xameliaxxxx]

@trentsmate

last years line up was amazing i thought, pendulum, foals, drums, tdcc and the libs :(

this is my first year, i couldn't go last year :/ so i hope it is good!

have you heard their new album? i got it in feb its Amazing!!! they might tour soon for it?

i hope you find tickets somehow then haha :)

[TheGudZeBadAnDaFozzy]

Ah its good to see Madness are on the line up, and should be totally awesome to see Beady Eye and see if Liam can match up to Oasis live, plus Pulp :D been a long time haha kings of Britpop :P

[trentsmate]

@TheGudZeBadAnDaFozzy

It's a right good old school line up. Be reminising good times if I manage to get a ticket somewhere!

[ofiniso]

I've never been to it and don't even know of the other line ups, so without something to compare it to it's rather awesome...

[sbaker021]

hahahahaha

did you not go in 2008? its the worst lineup ever.

[rugby16161616]

In response to this video i would like to say that, in my humble opinion, the line up is FUCKING AMAZING

[Saaarrraaaahhh]

I think the line-up is pretty good, i mean MCR, MUSE, 30STM, Panic, Jimmy eat world, white lies, the strokes, new found glory. I like all of them. I still really considering about going, the amount it is. would it be worth it? i have the money. but would it be worth spending £200 odd.! Im thinking yes!! :D

Loving the video btw.

[bradnaldinho]

Haha. GO TO THE READING FESTIVAL SITE RIGHT NOW AND YOU WILL SEE WEEKEND TICKETS ARE STILL AVAILABLE. That's how shit the line-up is, compared to last years which sold out in hours

I've been the last 2 years, but as soon as me and my mates saw the line-up ... : (

Too many whiny, scene, bitch rock bands that 14 year old girls listen to (Deftones bring horizon, jimmy eat world etc).

Fingers crossed next years line-up will be an improvement.

Chili Peppers headlining FTW

[Bereziuki1234]

@bradnaldinho what planet are you on? since when do whiney 12 year old bitches listen to Deftones?!? go listen to My Own Summer!

[AGiraffeAteMyDog]

I'm going to Reading, but me and all my mates and the people going near where I live think that it's pretty crap.. like the bands are ok, but I only like one or two songs from them :(

[thehost6669ian]

kick ass line up...and i am GOING!!!

[holywood25]

line up sucks last year was better

[trentsmate]

@holywood25

I wern't a big fan of last years, although I wouldn't have minded seeing Limp Bizkit. Bet they were awesome.

[stupidrapidfire]

I think it's THE BEST line up ever cause muse, my chemical romance, the stokes and more brill bands are playin! I'd say if u had the money GO FOR IT!!!!!

[trentsmate]

@stupidrapidfire

Shame I dodn't have the money now! :( haha

WOuld love to see the Strokes live!

[karmagirl74]

Duuuuuude you must be guttered!! That's a pretty awesome line up. Hopefully someone might try and sell some and you can nab them! :D

[trentsmate]

@karmagirl74

Hopefully, i'm hoping like last year there will be someone who's bought two and sells me one! haha

[Drdimples407]

That is an amazing line up. I wish i could go.

[trentsmate]

@Drdimples407

It's brilliant isn't it?

[benslfc]

great line up!

[trentsmate]

@benslfc

I like your taste in music! It's a great lineup indeed.

[Pantraimos]

That was probably the BEST lineup evah. first off: THE STROKES!!! i mean comoooon

[trentsmate]

@Pantraimos

I'd love to see the strokes live, bet their amazing. Heard their new album is awesome aswell.

[guitarist993]

lol, no mention of mcr under good bands, GOOD THEY ARE SHIT!

[trentsmate]

@guitarist993

haha! I don't consider them to be good at all...they have one or two decent songs but i wouldn't go to see them, if I was there I'd probably go to another tent.

[skaterboyrob19]

it's an INSANE line up. you forgot to mention 2 bands though, Jimmy Eat World and Deftones! i'm unbelievably psyched that my 2 favorite bands are playing the same festival!!!

[trentsmate]

@skaterboyrob19

Awesome line up indeed!

Got a ticket? :)

[skaterboyrob19]

@trentsmate not yet, hopefully i'll have one ordered sometime this week though. i'm hoping to get an early bird as well.

[trentsmate]

@skaterboyrob19

I'd be quick dude! they go quick.

[trentsmate]

@InThisLight99

I get the opportunity to go...and i still can't. I'm wasting a great festival here! :(

Oh and my mates got it...i'm still yet to listen but i've heard good things :)

[XxcalvindudexX]

[trentsmate]

@BareSickProductions

Not seen that yet, i'll have to check it out!

[silverpurse]

Its a baaag of indie waaank!

I'd only like to see enter shikari, panic and midnight beast!

Not worth £200 though :(

Global gathering or creamfields for me i rekkk :D x

[trentsmate]

@silverpurse

Lol you make me laugh :)

£200 is a bit steep tho

[stripeyninga]

so underwhelmed. wish i bought a glasto ticket.

[trentsmate]

@stripeyninga

Good lineup for Gasto!

[geraldineflump]

im glad i cant go :D

[trentsmate]

@geraldineflump

haha :)

[mrsmarvellous1]

Ah come on, never heard of such a bad line up! For example the strokes: they played at an openair in switzerland and I fell asleep :S and you really wanna see that ginger from two door cinema club??

(just wanted to cheer you up, that lineup sounds amazing! And next time feel free to contact me if no one would like to go with you!)

[trentsmate]

@mrsmarvellous1

Thanks so hard for trying :(

I will contact you, I'm glad I got someone who wants to go! haha :)

[Dylbob206]

haha! i was gonna go, but the tickets were too expensive :/

[trentsmate]

@Dylbob206

It is a bit steep isn't it? :(

[trentsmate]

@WhereIsWales

I'm so upset its unreal haha :(

[unaiza7]

o.o ... OMG!!!! That sounds FANTASTIC!!! The line-up is amazing!!!!

Unfortunately I live in Belgium and I bet my parents won't let me go to England to go to a festival. T.T

I wish you could go and film everything for us.

[trentsmate]

@unaiza7

I should try and sneak in or draw myself a ticket...be the official youtube coverer of the festival! haha

[unaiza7]

@trentsmate HAHAHA, that would be so hilarious!!

You should really try that, you have to take some risks in life. =P

Or you can just borrow some money from your parents. ;D

[Khomatose]

Two Door Cinema Club are tools. I was in a play with them in their school, they're cocky wee shits -.-

[trentsmate]

@Khomatose

Wow really? Thats a right good claim to fame!

...shame about them not being very nice tho :/

[Khomatose]

@Khomatose Interesting titbit for you, Two Door Cinema Club, Snow Patrol, Ryan Thompson and General Fiasco are all from my town :) But yeah, it isa shame, because it put me off buying their CD -.-

Come to Pigstock instead!
