The place to be: Reading Festival Friday 27th - Sunday 29th August 10

Ignore the statisticians. August 27- 29 will be the hottest days of the year . Rock, alternative, indie, punk, metal, big names, breaking acts, and exclusive performances – you name it, Reading Festival has it!

Of particular interest to Libertines fans everywhere is the news that Pete Doherty and Carl Barât have put aside their differences and will be playing together for the first time since 2004.

Headliners at Reading include Guns N' Roses, Arcade Fire, and Blink 182, but as ever at Reading, there is always something new and exciting to get the crowds jumping. Hot new band New Young Pony Club play a set on Friday (27 of August) showcasing tracks from their new and much talked about album - The Optimist.

We all agree that there is no better way to say goodbye to the summer than packing your tent and heading to Reading
