Will that be the same for the corresponding days at Leeds?

Also, has anyone here ever used SOSMasterTicket before? I think we've been defrauded on Leeds tickets. :evil:

Never even heard of them myself. You'd be best off searching on Google for some feedback!

I assume that the stage times will be the same, but flipped over.

I'll see what I can find.

We did, and I wasn't impressed.

Hi there ive had a very bad experience with sosmasterticket.com. I purchased two tickets with them for the Madonna sticky sweet tour which should of cost £154.38 they also took £238 out of my bank account which im still trying to get the money back but i just keep getting fobbed off saying it will be back in my account within 7 to 10 working days ive been told that twice now. Whether i will actually get the tickets is another question altogether i personally dont think i will as i think sosmasterticket are nothing but fraudster's. So my advice to anybody thinking about getting tickets is go with ticketmaster not sosmasterticket.com NOBODY BUY TICKETS FROM SOSMASTERTICKET unless you want them to clean your bank account out like they did me leaving just a pond in my account.

Ouch.

I'm probably not going to bother going to Reading. Just seems like it could be a wasted journey if I'm not able to secure a ticket there.

Cult of Luna in two days! Too bad they're being supported by gooseberry fool.

I was very interested in going to that Nightmare Before Christmas thing the Melvins and Mike Patton arranged, but the ticket's are ridiculously expensive and you have to be 18 to get (it's about 10 days before my birthday).

I'm off to see Skindred tonight too (and Exit Ten). I've not heard anything but good things about Skindred live... can't wait!

I just thought, us Readingites might need to exchange phone numbers if anyone is planning to meet up.

Only seen Skindred once (supporting Gogol Bordello) and they were ace.

Despite seeing them pretty much everytime they've come over I'm gutted that Set Your Goals have dropped out of Leeds/Reading. Nevermind, it means more time for Cancer Bats.

Reading Festival Stage Times - Here


They don't look particularly official to me.

Anyway, Leeds fest here. Can't wait. :)

I don't have any gigs lined up for the rest of the year. :(

Thought this year has been the best year, for me. I haven't been to loads but the few I've attended have been incredible.

OMG! How the strawberry float is Reading NEXT WEEKEND?!

Boy, that's snuck up incredibly fast.

Tickets still haven't turned up though, which is pant-wettingly worrying. :lol:

My Leeds ticket turned up last week.

Got my train tickets sorted, seriously need to pick up the essentials now though.

Good luck on getting it sorted, but this sort of thing is why I only go by official sites.

A friend of mine took a risk with Iron Maiden, and bought a ticket from World Ticket Shop or something, and it turned out okay for him.

I don't know anyone who has their Reading tickets actually, even though I got my Leeds ones last week.

If they haven't arrived by tomorrow, I'd rage against the proverbial machines.
