God Is In The TV - Reading & Leeds Festival Special 2013 August 2013 | Page 19

you looking forward
To playing reading &
leeds THis year?

Really looking forward to it,
as we do every year! Its like a
summer time tradition for us
now, I think it’s the 6th year in
a row I have played reading
and leeds and the 5th time
with Gallows. Its just a good
opportunity for us to catch
up with lots of friends in other
bands at the end of the summer
and usually see out what is a
busy time of the year with a
great party.
wHaT are your Top
3 fesTival survival
Tips? and is THere
anyTHing sHould noT
forgeT To bring?
Top 3 Tips To survive:

1 Know when it’s time to go to
bed. By all means party hard
late into the night, but you don’t
want to be that last guy left on
his own stumbling into tents and
babbling incoherently the next
day. You’ve got 3 days to get
through, pace yourself!
2 Come prepared and don’t
buy drugs off strangers:
Festivals are a place where
inevitably people will
experiment with soft drugs, if
you think that’s likely to be you,
just be aware that when buying
drugs off strangers you have no
idea what is in them or the harm
it can do you and your friends.
Ask yourself if its worth it?
3 BABY WIPES...BRING
BABY WIPES.

don’T forgeT: Most
importantly your ticket! I know
a few people that has happened
to, after travelling a long way
and I can’t imagine there’s much
worse than that. Loo roll and
wellies you can find on site
if needed, but you’re going
nowhere without your ticket!
besT Hangover cure?

For me, something cold, like Ice
lollies or a Slush Puppie tend to
help me out. That and a fistful
of Advil!
wHaT’s THe funniesT
THing THaT’s ever
Happened To you aT
reading & leeds?

Funniest thing was probably
watching some poor soul

entering a porter loo before
some git pushed it over with the
chap inside it...Terrible really and
we shouldn’t’ laugh..
are you Hoping To caTcH
any bands THis year?

Yeah loads, there are a ton of
cool bands playing, especially
on the same stage as us,
particularly our friends in Feed
The Rhino and Palm Reader. I’m
really looking forward to their
sets on the lock up stage.
your Top Tip for ‘one’s
To waTcH’?

It’s got to be Mallory Knox
hasn’t it? First time playing and
opening the main stage. Great
band with great songs and
lovely lads.
