which is the better site - Reading or Leeds?

[Seanoooo]

Curious.. camp sites, atmosphere, stage positions.. ect

[the wonderwhy]

Reading because (according to tourette) there is a Yates nearby.

[Yellow_Fellow]

There is, it's shit.

[Benj]

If you want a nice country setting Leeds, if you want an urban setting (with the benefits that brings) Reading

[TheBoz]

I've only been to Reading but I like it due to the town nearby for breakfast and a shit in a proper toilet

[adam1234]

Haha the old age debate! Might as well throw it in. Leeds! More to do after the bands finish as there is late night entertainment at Leeds and not at reading. Bands on the Thursday at Leeds and not at reading. Northerners are more friendly than those pretentious southerners and of course there is more gravy at Leeds!

[jonodillieono]

Leeds, it's got tents where late night entertainment happens

[the wonderwhy]

There is, it's shit.

[dart]

Leeds, more after hours entertainment shit

[Com Truise]

I don't think there is a better site, if you're a northerner you like being around other northerners, vice versa if you're a southerner

[Seanoooo]

Yeah im from up north, going leeds for the first time, been v past two years but need a proper festival

Any recommendations where to camp at leeds?

Depends what your after I go for green or brown if its there (depends on attendance) because there the quieter ones

[thetime]

Been to both, atmosphere leeds wins hands down.

Although ive not been to reading since 2002 so might have changed by now.

Enter Shikari said we were better than Reading on the Sunday

[Com Truise]

no one cared about ES at reading though cause they'd been there 5 years in a row....

Leeds has more gravy.

reading has less gravy, and less soggy chips as a good consequence.

[lharris92]

I wouldn't complain about seeing them 5 years in a row

They release new music/switch their setlists up quite regularly at least, can't have been THAT tedious

[Com Truise]

I love it when people say stuff like this seriously, "Yeah "Insert act here" said Leeds was s**t compared to Reading"

Do you not think they said the exact opposite at Leeds? or that every other gig they've ever played is "the best crowd ever"

[Com Truise]

release shit music yes (IN MY OPINION BEFORE SOMEONE RAGES ABOUT ME SAYING THIS - even though its true ), therefore its a wasted spot.

i even say the same about frank turner, been there more years than not, needs to take a break because they've just become the house bands which is dull, unimaginative etc.

and believe me it does become tedious, especially when its the only fest they have been playing more or less.

plus they tour every year shoving it down your throats. give it a fucking rest.

Yeah I agree they do play too much, especially when they target a very specific group, I love them but I can understand why people wouldn't like them
