Reading 2012 V reading 2011

[cheeseisamazing]

Hey guys,

Its 2012 V 2011 as a first glace

Obviously not all the line up has been announced for this year, but fuck it

(Puts on Ann Robinson voice)

Did MCR get you down last year, and you think you've found The Cure

When you got to A&E, did they ask if you had The Stroke when you heard Kasabian were heading?

Did you Muse over it and decide to get some foo(d) Fighters

Are you booked on the next flight '30 seconds to Mars' when you saw Paramore were subbing Again

Or Is Florence and machine not good enough, and you enjoy a fresh Pulp smoothie

IS your Elbow sore, after trying to find the Black Keys?

Its time to find out the weakest Festival!!!

reading 2010 pawns them both...

[Vieuphoria]

Only because of The Cure and At-The Drive In.

[cheeseisamazing]

in a unrelated effort I feel the Line up would look more amusing if the Vaccines and The cure played the same day...

[Vacant0]

Last year had Pulp so it wins.

[Joe-]

Looks like employees of Festival Republic have been voting. "IT'S A GREAT LINEUP THIS YEAR PLEASE BUY TICKETS"

[mrtourette]

Sunday 2012 is probably the best of the six days but overall it's very close. The Friday main stage for both years has been rubbish.

1 point: Band that I don't really know but could potentially like, would be interested in checking out if nobody else is on

Comparing first announcements, 2011 scores a bit better for me... most of the bands I liked were concentrated on the Friday though, so I just got a day ticket; this year they're a bit more spread out so I'm going for the whole weekend.

2011 by far

without The Cure and At The Drive-In 2012 would be almost completely worthless
