Perhaps someone will perform a Systems Failure study on it Unless BBC3 coverage is mistaken, one must infer that the Reading Festival has been utter shit? Might go to some festivals abroad next year Ok ‘utter shit’ is too kind a compliment for the Libertines. So offensively bad I want a nuclear bomb to go off on stage. Checked in at Brew Tea Shop Checked in at Mathew Street Festival: Exchange Street Well that was…interesting, just been in the centre of a 20 teenager strong fight on the 82 bus. The Dingle crew racially abused a crowd of black kids, who proceeded to beat the living shit out of them. They seem unphased by it all. Jane Iliffe also commented on Clare Powell’s status.
