Done and dusted

After much debate we (or rather, I) have decided that we (or I) are (am) going to pack our (my) bags and head to the dreaded Reading festival.

G just sent me this:

My friend C persuaded the "old friends" that this would be a good idea. We'll be working on Thurs + Fri afternoon (read: conducting market research questionnaires). And then the idea is that we have the rest of the fest to spend time together, hang out, reminisce, jump around to some music, and just take that time we never seem to have.

I am dreading it because I am not really up for being surrounded by spotty teens who will most likely be wasted. I am over that.

After writing the previous post I decided this would be a good idea. Sometimes its about making an effort. It's about getting out of your comfort zone and just doing it damnit. It's all to easy to say no and just miss out (I find the older I get the less I feel like being at THE party - I just don't care anymore).

Anyway.
I also have the feeling that this might be the last old friends event.

Or am I just hanging on?

Hey, it could ROCCCKKK. It really could. The line up looks OK and at least I am at the stage where I can be selective in what I see.
So I want to see
- Peter Bjorn and John
- Unkle
- Bloc party
- Smashing pumpkins and NIN (for old time's sake!)
- pull tiger tail (they were great at Fieldday)
- THe shins
- Arcade Fire
- RHCP

The rest I don't know....but could be an opportunity to discover something HOT!

Okay...getting a little excited now...
