my brother goes to reading every year, so i was thinking of going with him to that next year. but alot of my mates are going glastonbury. i cant afford both

In general:

Glastonbury: Hippy happy mondays madchester namby pamby shite

Reading: Rock Rock and more Rock. I suspect some very large heavy metal acts are booked for Reading next year...

I heard the sound quality on the Reading main stage was terrible, especialy prodigy. Anybody who had any sense that night was in plug and play just round the corner enjoying the bass

I think I'd plump for glasto as it doesn't matter what the lineup is, plenty of other stuff to do.

Reading main stage sound is very pot luck... depends completely on the wind as to whether you can hear properly or not!

I love glastonbury, been going since I was 12, but in recent years haven't enjoyed it so much, it's a great place but I think it's lost a lot of it's magic.

Reading is great, been 4 times, and it's good, but I get annoyed about the not taking drink into the arena thing and they could def do a few things to improve it.

So... either or... depends what you want out of a festival!

im guessing glastonburry will be good this year due to the 40th year anniversary

Glastonbury for me every time. Where else can you get completely pickled, then wander into a fucking massive field in the middle of the woods with entire post-apocalyptic themed city ("Shangri-La") with mini-clubs, transvestite robots, mechanical spiders breathing fire, techno bars with barmaids using angle grinders on their fannies, and all sorts of other mad shit, constructed purely for the entertainment of pickled people. It's brilliant.

Glastonbury festival... causing my train to Plymouth to be delayed and delaying my application
