New names for Reading/Leeds announced
crablin by Colin Roberts April 28th, 2006

A host of new bands and artists announced for Reading and Leeds this year.

The annual lager-fest known as 'The C**ling Weekend: Reading/Leeds' has been bolstered and (somewhat) improved with the announcemnt of a few spades worth of artists.

Some of the highlights include peformances from Broken Social Scene (pictured), Mystery Jets, The Long Blondes and more.

Take a look at the list below and scream from the rooftops, "I must attend this festival!" Perhaps a friendly local eBay seller will hear your call. Even better, would be throwing your own festival, featuring some sort of psycho jellyfish that play keyboards.

Reading and Leeds runs between the 25th-27th August. Tickets for weekend camping are sold out, but you could but three day tickets and sleep in a ditch if you so desire.
