Reading Festival
Posted by SimonL on 4 April 2011 - 1:58pm.
This used to be my weekend of choice across the Festivals, I think I went 12 years in a row in the end. I was lucky enough to get in for nowt though, thanks to a relative who performed every year and 'employed' me to do his sound.
There was a crowd of us who went every year and pretty much only met up there, and a few other gigs here and there.
So I'm not sure how much tickets actually were for the weekend. But I've just been on the website to check out this years line-up and saw the weekend price...from £192.50....
What's the most you would (or have paid) pay for a weekend festival?

I used to pick and choose days at Reading
as I lived so close and one day was always bobbins.
Think last time I did a whole weekend there was around the 120 quid mark. The only other festival I've done a weekend of was the first End Of the Road and that was around 90 quid
£250...
for a short notice ticket to Green Man Festival two years ago. Caught out when it sold out quicker than I expected. Made an internet tout very happy but worth every penny.
a relative who performed every year?
are you related to Dumpy of Rusty Nuts fame?
Reading was never the same since the days of Rory Gallagher
Thin Lizzy and Status Quo.
Ahhh... a 'proper' festival :-)
