Ok so... we wake up with a groan and a OOOOO its reading YEAAAAAAH lol and rachel finds she is a Smurf.
which is a very amusing picture to my mind but on to the bands.....
Goldie Lookin' Chain: We love u , u rock, all the songs were ace they were very very funny. and i think i may have been standing next to a girl Kate works woth lol. but it was amazing :>. (adams Chav School.....)
We trotted down to the front to watch The Wedding Present who were very old and a bit weird, thought they were good to start then realised that no they sound the same in every song.
and so we wait... and watch Dropkick Murphys, who were very funny and Irish and amusing, especially when they played a version of Amazing Grace which had rahcel n me going 'why do we know that..? oh its...' then we decided (while i ate my Chow Mein) that a nap in the tent would definatly be a good thing so lets do it!! and we did. waking up just in time to run down to the NME tent for Fightstar (Charlie from Busteds new band) who actually rocked and i reckon they were easily one of the Highlights for me cos hes still hot even when hes gone all Emo and stoned and their music is really good so go download!! they kept gettin stuff thrown at them including a sign saying 'we love charlie' in pop gig style. bastards. we then decided not to see My Chemical Romance and go for some munch instead. i couldve gone hungry really but hey. its Reading.
next up.... Queens of the Stone Age. fuck me they were amazing, we stood on the edge of the Mosh pit the entire time and joined in when we got pushed lol. the lead was drunk but his voice is always amazing so who cares. then. its Killers time. and these guys were fucking Immence. we got quite far down and i got a few good films of them on my phone, anyone wants to see just ask eh? seriously they were FAB i loved every second even when someone dropped a muddy coat on my head!! we watched some of the Pixies then decided that they were a bit fat and we were a bit tired still and off we went to bed.
yes yes we were pussys.
more photos as and when...

So up we get bright and early at 5:30am and recieve a text from Simon, aka Batman, saying hes headed up to reading at 4 and hell give me a call when he gets there. i get a phone call when were about half way there at 8:30 saying hes there.
now the thing about simon was.... me and rachel only convinced him to come to reading at 11pm the night before. in the pub. i say convinced it was more.. come it only costs about 120 from the touts outside. he sed cool ill get cover and left 5 hours later.
so.... we arrive at the beautiful campsite of reading, which is muddy. at about 10 ish and we trot along through yellow camp for about 20 mins lookin for a place to pitch. eventually we find a nice little hole in Yellow F and after a few sill errors like puttin the tent the wrong way round and the top sheet on inside out but we get the worlds largest glow in the dark white and silver tent up. and it looks sexy.
Tents up, were unpacked and we call simon and tell him where we are. no sign of simon. we call dave to see when hes gettin here and discover he isnt coming due to tonsillitus, he soun ds very very pissed off. after a few moments of pity me and rachel decide its all for the best as we now have the biggest tent for just 2 people. woooo. off we trot to shop, we purchase fairy wings a batman mask fairy skirt a green mask a canadian flag marker pens and a washing up bowl. oh and some food. back to the campsite we go, buy beer and rum (WHERES THE RUM GONE?!?!?)and get very drunk.
we meet random men whilst giving free hugs hang out with them for a while. run around giving more free hugs, then a few more. then we discover that someone has stolen our flag!!! i mean thats up for like 3 hours and its gone!!! so we ask more random men for hugs and flag reports then we go dancing for a while, one nof the randoms leaves, meaning rachel has the full attention of the dude in the sheepskin and aviators, so we attempt to escape a few times pretneding to see simon. no chance, so off we head to our tent and i go inside whilst rachel.. well u know, i pretned she has a call from her mum at 2:30am but hey it works.
to bed we go and thats day one.
(i expect ill add more as i remeber random shizzle)

so well today.. i havnt done much, well i really have but it hasnt seemed like it! i edited James' (Padge) MySpace for him and showed him the wonders of html you can get to him thro the My MySpace link and hes in my friends section. i copied lots of good music for him and he took the piss and gave me beer. just like old times except no garage or cigarettes or goo goo dolls lol ah those were the days.
me mum and dad had a nice little barney and it turns out my dad wasnt speaking to my mum cos he didnt like the way she spoke to me. i feel loved eh? had to go and get the washing in halfway through to escape. nah ja tis life in the Holmden household. it'd be good to maybe go a year without drama.

I'M GOING TO READING FESTIVAL ON THURSDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FUCK YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH
lol oh dear! last nite was such a total laugh, chatted with Mike Sharp who thinks im avoiding him, but since he never came and sed hello at pauls party either hes just as bad as me heh. we had a bit of a mini fight when the bouncer wouldnt let Austin into Jacks so we went to chicagos.. then back to Jacks to try n get in again.... then back to chicagos... then me n harley went back to jacks to dancey dancey and ended up once more with the stock brook crew lol, me n Dave Smith spent the entire time avoiding eye contact i think hes a little embarressed by his overly forceful behaviour last week, i thank the mocha syrup pump for giving me scary muscles in my arms. in fact u can actually feel the one on the outside of my right arm, its kinda scary but very very cool!!!
oo Killers just came on the radio make me think of Paul and buses from Banff but also Harley and Jacks lol.

I am slightly calmer than i was last nite, although i expect if i go another day without a cigarette i may be even more narky lol. still no word from dave but i guess this is whats supposed to happen eh? he may turn up with another friend or he may turn up with the ticket and ill have to flog it for 30 quid, but some money is better than none and i dont want to fall out with these guys over money. cos thats a stupid thing to argue about. lack of contact and information that i may fall out with them about lol. we had good times we had bad times, and since most of the bad times were near the end i guess theyr at the forefront of the mind. ah well it'll balance.

I am seriously getting narked off now. im owed a total of 390 pounds for 3 reading tickets. one of which i cant sell because i cant get hold of Dave, even tho iv asked everyone for his number iv recieved no replies. i know for a fact that pauls been online therfore got my email about the number and since its his fucking fault that im gonna be out 130 quid youd think he'd be either more apologetic and try to help. i cant believe how let down i feel by these guys, i lived with them, worked with them and travelled with them for 8 months and now they honestly dont seem to give a flying fuck. apart from Rachel shes the only one that even seems slightly bothered that i exist, oh and tim of course. these people were my best friends i thought i could trust them with everything i honestly cant belive how relaxed they all are about owing me money!! 'oh she inherited 16k so it doesnt matter that i owe her money' of course it fucking matters it wasnt a bloody gift it was a loan. for all i know dave is gonna sell the ticket that is still my fucking property and in my name! milnes may decide at the last minute he doesnt want to come and so might dave and in that case itll b me n rachel in a huge tent at reading festival. this would be really cool but it doesnt make up for the fact that i appear to be getting screwed over by people who are my friends. it may seem as if im over reacting, in fact it feels as if this is one of those moments where ill regret writing this on here and ill get an email saying cool down mate i just didnt check my emails. but i want people to know how hurt and let down i am that people i know and love wont even give me their mobile numbers so i can talk to them
