I will be forgetting about festivals this summer mainly because i won't be in the country but also because I will not be unfaithful to Glastonbury and i will be locking myself in a smelly toilet with a couple of bottles of jack daniels and a massive speaker with some loud tunes for the weekend it was due to take place out of respect for her.

How many days ? when ? and how much ?

Apparently the peppers hate England which is a shame as they are a serious class act, they pulled out of Glastonbury the last time I went 5 years ago, which was a bit of a chocker as they top of my list of bands not to miss.

[bucketbongeagle]

Oh August 18/19 so presumably 2 days, would help eliminate stupid questions if I bothered to read the post properly but still like to know how much ?

Isn't V2001 the catalogue number of the original Tubular Bells by Mike Oldfield?

BASEMENT JAXX
BECK
BURNING SPEAR
NICK CAVE
COLDPLAY
THE CURE
DEFTONES
BOB DYLAN
FEEDER
GUNS N' ROSES
MISTY IN ROOTS
P J HARVEY
STEREO MC'S
WYNONA
NEIL YOUNG
and ROBBIE WILLIAMS (but you can stay in your tent for that one.)
+ about 30 other bands.

Second thoughts about staying in the tent for Robbie Williams...thats probably when the Scandinavian birds will get their kit off.

I got my camping ticket for V2001 on Monday for £82 & I am definitely looking forward to it as I have been for the last 2 years & it is much better than Glasto & Reading in the way it is organised,location etc & it is'nt full of hippies & students!!
Looking forward to seeing Embrace & Toploader & not forgetting Shed 7!!

Bucket Bong it is the weekend of 19th August & the bands are on Sat & Sun but if you camp you can go down Fri & come back on Mon.Day tickets are around £40 I think.Hope this helps!!

Whats wrong with hippies and students?

[southlondonlalala]

We're Reading
We're Reading
We'll kick your fu*king head in!

[le piddler]

middle aged accountants my fecking arse!!! I just think that V is by far the better festival than Reading in that it has the better line up (including the Charlatans!!) whereas Reading is too rock orientated & V has 2 massive stages as well which means you get a great view of the bands whereas I had to stand in a crappy tent last year for the second stage to watch the mighty Embrace & Muse!!
By the way I will be camping all three nights, but I may go in the Holiday Inn for a quick shower!!

I rest my case.

I thought the V festivals were for middle aged accountants who can only stand one night of camping and two days of 'having it'. Looks like I was right again. http://www.cpfc.org/ubb/wink.gif

Who's the designated driver? Will you actually stay in the local Holiday Inn? http://www.cpfc.org/ubb/tongue.gif
