i was here right at the front but because i was there from the very first band i had 2 get lifted up by the security guards cuz i was so desperate for a pee it sucked i only watched half the set :( but they were good from what i saw along with all the other bands on the last day main stage:)
i wos at he front 4 smashin pumpkins and kings of leon and im 15 so u wasnt the youngest and these 2 and Lostprophets were the best band there and much 2 my dissapointment the chillis messed up.
I agree. In my 5 consecutive years of coming to Reading, the Chillis were the worst headliner I have seen. I was right near the front for NIN and the Pumpkins and both were aamazing. I was annoyed that the BBC didn't show more of the Pumpkins set though.
i saw the chilis at leeds and as a big fan was let down a bit. i guess 2 yrs of touring took its toll. Still a great band though. Smashing pumpkins are great live though, they owned.
kyral210 i disagree, the sound of the music was just amazing, its not like d'arcy or iha made the pumpkins the mindblowing band they are, it was always the billy corgan show to a certain extent in my opinion
I was there, and I am a massive pumpkins fan. The problem is, this is just 'The Billy Corgan Show', not the pumpkins, without James Iha (if nor Darcy) its just not the same, I went from the front to 100 meters back to watch as it was boring. The single biggest disappointment in my life. Yes, Tonight tonight still makes me cry, so its not that I don't love them
they were amazing. I wish more of their songs were uploaded from this show. Some legend put all Muse's set from last year on google video so I could download it onto my ipod. Fingers crossed some does the same for the SP.
Words cannot describe the elation I felt at reading. NIN followed by pumpkins. It doesnt get any better. Corgan and Reznor just shit all over any performance I saw that weekend.....well mayby not gogol bordello...but thats different. I seen NIN before but this was immense, and as for pumpkins...I had tickets to see there split up gig but i was in hospital so I'l die a happy man now i have finaly seen them.
I was at Leeds Festival 07. Smashing Pumpkins playing was the best thing in my life - I thought I'd never be able to see them after they split. Smashy Pumps were tip top. None of the crowd said shit because they were so encapsulated in the performance. They just sang along.
This performance was the best of the weekend by far. It almost brought me to tears at one opint. I honestly thought id never get to see them live and i was so scared they were gonna suck, but they were amazing. Absolutely amazing. Was so glad when they played drown.
Billy Corgan still means something. The Pumpkins still mean something. This performance proves it.
I shuffled forward to the front row for the Pumpkins Nin were magnificent too they don't make em like they used to! Interested in in dark/Ambient music? check out Lana,Flatspin, Halo-ego-trip on our films here under chanceencounters and website chance-encounters.o r g
Was there. Most amazing gig i have ever seen. NIN and The SP basically turned up and showed us all hows it's done. The made a joke of the rest of the festival!
took a star and stripes to burn for that. was fun but we got thw wrong type of 'non-flamable' flag and ended up waving boiling plastic everwhere. think everyone was to mashed to notice though
I do hope that is a joke otherwise please kindly go fuck yourself with all the other emo twats who can't see a good song to save them from sliting their pathetic wrists. Your not worthy of Billy Corgans greatness.
dearest refuckingtarded emo faggot- that indeed was a joke, but since you so fucking deep and alknowing that you easily understood the humor in my writing- i give you this message to assist you in your quest for r becoming the bigest idiot on this site- GO FUCKING FUCK YOUR MOTHER YOU FUCKING LOOSER...fuck get a life ans a sence of humor...fucking retarded americans
wow, you could have just agreed to be an american and joined the ranks of many dumbasses who have preceded you, instead you did the dumber thing and decided to bring down all of england down with you- well congratulations dipshit, you just set back your whole race a good 100 years, ( come to think of it, i had an ex who was a brit, so for any brits out there, i in no way judge you by the actions of this reject, evry country has to have its dumbasses...)
Agee to be a american? like fuck would I do that. I might start making shite jokes about Britiny and generally be a wanker without even knowing it. That would be bad. Or worse I could even pretend to be cool and swear alot and slag off other peoples countries. Man your so funny. But for all the wrong reasons.
as for my humor, well a guess as a rebellious 12 year old who can barely comprehend the meaning of this rock band, and gets his ego up just because he knows the name of the lead singer ya i i guess my humor has flown waay over your head, maybe when your old enough to know what "smashing pumpkins" stands for, maybe then you can slowly start to comprehend my sence of humor,till then, do me a favor dont reply
Such a great performance, had to stand through lost prophets, fall out boy and another crap band in order to get for the front, but was well worth it to see NiN and Pumpkins.
Im in their somewhere. I got everyoe chanting billy's name. That was fucking mental. One of the best performances I've seen. Today was the greatest day!
At least I think it was me. I was the first one I knew was chanting it and everyone around me was obviously feeling the same awe of billys brillance and just joined in! it was amazing, thats a story to tell the grandchildren
yer i was at the front but not in the mosh pits cuz im only 12 lol but i new every song and i shouted all teh words and my voice dnt wrk either lol zero and bwbw was crazy but NIN wwer freakin amazing 2 .......MARCH OF THE PIGS !!!!
I was at the friggin' front too!! Yet, the bets song they played was Cherub Rock, I went fucking mental & shouted every word to EVERY song. Now I've lost my voice :( .
