Two of my fav bands ever play the last day in Marilyn Manson and Incubus, plus I really want to see Bloc Party. Not sure whether thats worth 60 pound though. Festivals are becoming more and more of a rip-off.
If I do go to a festival it will be Download.

Weekend Tickets have sold out for Reading

JJ Moore 03-26-2005 06:03 AM

This batch has sold out yes, they dont release all the tickets in one batch.

Cactus Sid 03-26-2005 06:23 AM

Apparently it is completely sold out, they've already released the tickets in 3 batches. Last year after the festival, earlier this year, and the general sale that started Monday.

They'll probably be a small batch of 1000 - 2000 released on seetickets in May or June

Ska-Wars 03-26-2005 06:32 AM

Ebay is swarming with bastards trying to sell tickets for about £200 a go, it really pisses me off. As it goes it's probably best they sold out, £135 is a hell of a lot for me. I'll probably end up just buying a day ticket for whichever day has the most bands I want see.

Cactus Sid 03-26-2005 06:36 AM

Trust me....you can buy them at the box office when you get there, I've heard numerous people saying they got them

Danny Electric 03-26-2005 06:45 AM

You can, my mates have for the past two years.
The good thing about living in Oxford is that I'm only down the road. So I can get there as early as possible to get tickets.
