Friday

Alkaline Trio - 3.5 : Dreadful sound (I know they can do better!)

Queens of the Stone Age - 10 : Band of the weekend

Biffy Clyro - 9 : Awesome crowd, good to hear Jaggy Snake

Lostprophets - 8 : Too muddy! However the parts that were good were awesome

NOFX - 7.5 : Laugh out loud funny at times

Gogol Bordello - 7.5 : Solid as ever, good party atmosphere

A Day to Remember - 4.5 : I just wanted it to end

Saturday

Pendulum - 9 : Best sound of any band of the weekend by a f**king mile!

Enter Shikari - 7.5 : Crowd was so rough I was too busy concentrating on that rather than the band, plus dissapointing for them

Crystal Castles - 7 : Suprisingly good! Catchy and great sound

Frank Turner - 7 : I knew no songs, but he was awesome!

The Maccabees - 3.5 : Bored me to tears, we left after two songs (I think)

Sunday

Blink-182 - 8.5 : Perfect band to end the weekend with, despite not being the best. Really chilled out and happy atmosphere

Paramore - 3 : Worst band I have ever seen live. Shit sound and an even worse crowd! Why so high up?

Weezer - 9.5 : A true lesson in how to put on a f**king good show, Rivers you are a legend! Had no idea I'd enjoy them this much

Limp Bizkit - 8 : Solid as ever, a greatest hits set. Would have been better but it was pretty rough for the last songs so I was cautious

Los Campesinos - 5 : Meh

I didn't see Arcade Fire either. They kinnda bore me, and they drew a tiny crowd.

It's not a matter of opinion with Blink. The fact is, it's pretty clear people seem to look at Blinks gig through Rose tinted glasses. It's strange that people can't even be slightyl critical of the bands set. It was hideous.

Not really sure if these are in the actual order I saw them in - and the lack of amazing main stage scores I blame on the sound really - so here goes:

SATURDAY

----------------

Arcade Fire 8.5/10

The Libertines 8.75/10 (silly rating because it wasn't quite a 9 but was obv more special for me than Arcade Fire)

Giggs 7/10

Gallows 8/10

The Invasion Of 1/10

The Cribs 7/10

Modest Mouse 6/10

I understand that you were only a casual fan, so if you really didn't like Blink they there were plenty of other stages you could have gone to.

Don't get me wrong, the musicianship was poor, the sound was even worse, Tom being so off on something that he couldn't do anything. But the fact that the crowd were singing along to every word, the atmosphere within it, the energy they had, biggest headliner crowd, flares being set off, and just seeing Blink 182 (for most a childhood band) and them of course splitting up and the only English shows they did, I would have given a 9.

well said. and i'm sure if Soundgarden had headlined (which will never happen) and they weren't actually that good or tight or whatever you keep saying but you enjoyed it because you were watching one of your favourite bands again after x amount of years, you'd rate it at least 9. just because you thought they were shit, doesn't the the tens of thousands of people who absolutely loved it did.
