Leeds Festival Offers Something For Everyone:
For as long as I've been attending Leeds festival, it as always been the highlight of the festival season, in the past line-ups have included Metallica, Iron Maiden, Oasis, Rage Against The Machine, Smashing Pumpkins, Muse, Pearl Jam, Green Day, and Guns N Roses. So being a rock music fan at heart, Leeds always satisfied my appetite for great live music.
Obviously this year was no exception to the rule, although Radiohead did seem to be a questionable choice to be headliners, after seeing them play, they should be categorised as flatliners instead.
This year Leeds festival even had a nice surprise in the form of Them Crooked Vultures - if like me you had never heard of them, it is a superband with Dave Grohl on drums, Josh Homme (QOTSA) and John Paul Jones (Led Zeppelin). Now seeing them was worth the ticket price alone.
Obviously Kings Of Leon were one of the few main stage bands to get a huge crowd, and they knew how to impress their fans. Other bands which impressed on the main stage included The Prodigy, which to be honest I have never seen them ever do a bad show. The Kaiser Chiefs have still got that magic ingredient to attract vast numbers to come and watch them play live.
Overall I absolutely loved this years Leeds Festival, so I will certainly be looking forward to going next year regardless of who the headliners are, which I predict will be the Kaiser Chiefs, and Them Crooked Vultures. The only thing that will stop me going is if they decide to book those flatliners Radiohead again.
