If I still have any energy left on Sunday night I'll definitely give that Shikari set a go.

does anyone know the deal with this Jack Rocks Stage at Leeds could see a few of them Jagerhaus acts being thrown on there if it's of a similar calibre to the version of the stage they had at Y Not?

I imagine it'll be basically the same sorta stuff as they had on that stage at Y Not and the one they had at Isle of Wight. Shitkicking indie bands. Awfully close to the main stage though; maybe after hours?

JagermeisterUk just told me on Twitter that it's in the camp site.

Hot Dub Time Machine at Reading too, playing Thursday night on the Alternative stage, can't remember if it has been mentioned.

When it comes to people I know who like music; Leeds isn't exactly high on the list in terms of appeal because the higher up acts are usually quite shit but they still find plenty of the acts interesting.

Kasabian // Vampire Weekend // Catfish & The Bottlemen // Blossoms // White Lies

NME – The Cribs, Lock Up - Slaves

Alt-J (Co-headline) // 30 Seconds To Mars (Co-headline) // Royal Blood // Wolf Alice // Marmozets

NME – MGMT, FR – Everything Everything

Blink 182 // Frank Ocean // Frank Turner & The Sleeping Souls // Bon Iver // Dinosaur Jr.

NME – Jamie T , FR - The Hives

be strange to have that after hours, it'd be a fair walk from everything else at that time- just wondering how many people would be willing to wander out all that way at 1am to watch fucking Baby Strange or something.

Updated leeds map shows that it's going to be busier again this year  

[harry5573]

So on the back of the ticket, it states that there is no crowd-surfing and anybody who does so will be made to walk the long way around to the main entrance. 

Is this actually enforced? It seems completely unreasonable

Nah, never ever. You just have to walk around the side of the stage back into the crowd.

I'm only going to Reading on the Friday, is wellys necessary? (If weather is fine?) As I went last year on the Saturday only and the only place I needed wellys was walking in to the arena after the day entry gate.

First time at Leeds fest, what is the deal with those entrances (Rachel's and Lord Bingley's)?  Are both entrances used for the people with day entry as well as campers?  Because that would mean that people with day tickets can chill in the campsites.

A forum can't guide you on what footwear to wear two weeks before the fest, man. Check out the weather forecast on the day.

Wasn't sure if the conditions were just usually crap whatever the weather. I've worn wellys on prior occasions as when I've been its been shit. Just was wondering if its good weather trainers would be OK.

Trainers will be fine if the weather is fine

[she bangs the drums]

Shuttle bus usually enter via Rachel's gate, and car park via Lord Bingley. 

There is nothing stopping people from hanging around the camp sites with a day ticket, you just won't be able to get in to the arena if you don't have a ticket for the following day if you decided to stay on camp site.

I see on this thread people are receiving weekend tickets, any idea about day tickets?

They actually enforced it one year at Leeds, think it was 07, what a fucking joke that was, you could see people coming out by the dozens as you was queuing to get into the arena on the Friday 

[AndrewSmith]

Reading weekend ticket arrived. It's setting in now, just one week to go before I begin packing!!!

[Jacksamthompson]

The Jager haus was there last year, or maybe the one before around the stalls in the campsite. was always too busy to get in.
