Anyone headed off to any festivals this year? I'm missing out at present though I am tempted to go to Reading on the Sunday if only for Pendulum and Tenacious D! :)

No, haven't done for a few years now.
Glasto's gone downhill now that you can't just give someone a tenner to be let through a tunnel. (I mean, Jay-Z? And James Blunt? Who on earth had that idea?) The Leeds line-up doesn't look that inspiring either*, apart from Metallica & Pendulum (can't stand Tenacious D, sorry!). Radiohead apparently might be playing at Glasto, but I've already got tickets to see them in June, so there's not much point. Also - I saw the seminal 1997 Radiohead Glasto performance, and it's never going to top that.
*However, having just checked the line-up, I see that there's now a band named after a restaurant in central London I worked for (briefly managed one of the offshoot take-aways) back in the 90's. The name "Bombay Bicycle Club" can't have come from anywhere else!
