Finally got round to reviewing Reading 1991 (see main site page). Don't get too excited, though - I didn't take a camera, and almost nothing of any note happened. Apart from the earthquake and the theft of Kev's car keys... sorry.

haha cheers reg....got another reason to skive now
i always like reading anyones review of a festival....especially the ones that dont focus mostly on the bands and more on the drinking stories...thats the real reason for going to a festival
actually, can you imagine a music festival without alchol?

Y'know, i've considered doing a festival without alcohol. But not dor long. It's only the drink that makes the filth, squalor, shit bands and crap jokes tolerable...

i actually came to the same conclusion about my girlfriend a couple of weeks ago

Maybe not right now, but when the festivals kick in we should make a Live reviews board for people to post that sort of stuff in.

The eagle-eyed among you will notice that in a fit of productivity, I've done a review of Reading 1990 as well! this one even has some pictures (although I've lost the best ones, sadly).

And selling lager from the boot of my car Oh and Jo and Jen - the only time Reg and I met and managed to talk to some half decent ladies at a festival... nice girls ;-) X

OMG Reg....have you been sacked, and therefore find yourself with copious amounts of spare time or something? LOL! No, just been using lunchtimes to type up the reviews, and any spare evening time to scan pics. Incredibly, the pics for the 1989 review are scanned, and the words written, so that won't be long, either. And I've selected the 1988 pics - but not written the review yet. It's all go round Fa Reg Towers, you know... Plus, I'm on a mission to list every band that's ever played Reading, which is a serious typing job, as I'm sure you can imagine, not least because I'd like them to be in the order they played each year, but some of than info is hard to find. But I'm getting there.

Yeah, I posted a link about that, and today had an e-mail from the museum, who have been using fatreg.com for research!
I've got to type up all the line-ups from posters and programmes etc. The 1987 programme had an A-Z list of every band up to that point, including the years each played, so I have all the info, but the will to type it all in is a little lacking at the moment!
