1) Alana Haim having her first crowdsurf
She looked terrified!
2) DRIZZY!
Moment of the summer, no question.
3) Winter coming
If there was one celeb who was all over Reading, it was Game of Throne's John Bradley-West (he plays Samwell Tarley). He was in the crowd naughtily bootlegging , he was hanging out with Muse and he made Annie Mac's weekend too:
It was a slight shame he didn't bring his GoT sword though. It would have been suitably metal.
4) That our musical highlight would involve bagpipes
5) Josh Homme and Skepta would hook up
PLEASE RECORD TOGETHER NOW! It'll be like when Aerosmith hooked up with Run-D.M.C. Except better.
6) The pineapple invasion
Pineapples were meant to be banned from Reading + Leeds for, er, health and safety reasons. It turns out VERY FEW people paid attention :)
Glass Animals, of course, ignored the memo too. Sing along now everyone: "Pineapples are in my head....!"
7) That our cameras would be smeared with snot
Er, thanks, At the Drive In :/
8) A bit of cosplay from Noel Fielding
Adding fun and frivolity to Kasabian's set, friend of the band Noel came to the party as a Serge/vampire lookalike.
9) That we'd have to tell Huw Stephens off for not wearing a bike helmet
And no fluorescent jacket either. Tut-tut!
10) That we'd learn Bastille's Dan is RUBBISH at Twitter
Although it did remind of his lovely tweet when Bastille played Reading for the first time on the tiny Festival Republic stage in 2012. Bring back that hair, Dan!
