My best moment at Reading was not when I was stuck in the welfare tent vomiting for hours, oh no. As special of a moment that was I had an even more incredible experience, the kind that I will be boasting about for years to come. After Billy Joe tweeted "What rhymes with shreading," the rumours that Greenday might be playing at Reading were amplified. Initially, everyone thought they would be on at 12 on Saturday, however I heard they were supposed to be on at 11am, at twenty to 11. It takes 45 minutes to walk to the arena. Nursing a sick stomach we all sprinted to the arena and managed to get in just after they started, and holy crap was it worth it. Everyone should experience the wall of death before midday at some point in there lives!
Greenday was "The best worst kept secret in Britain" -Billy Joe.
Here are images of some of the bands I saw, plus some incredible pictures of the Reading festival goers. 'Man' in the summer dress, I salute you.
This is what Reading is all about.
Me far right with my friends Becky Okell, Imogen Meborn-Hubbard and yes, Harry Styles
Happy Days
