Reading and Leeds festival 2012 line-up announced



People from all over the world wait for this day to come every year. Reading and Leeds festival are one of the greatest festivals in the world, and it's known that tickets fly by as they are released and available to be bought and that is happening right now. The announcement of the big names of the festival were announced yesterday at 7:15 and from that moment, the web collapsed and it took some minutes to know the band, but we finally knew, and believe me, what a line-up!!
The best of all this is that, even though a lot of bands have been announced, there are still more to be announced as there are going to be 7 stages in the festival. But right now, we only know which bands are going to be displayed during the 24,25 and 26th August in the main stage, the "NME" stage and the dance stage.
Lets go day by day:

The first day, the 24th starts with a big takeover by indie music at the NME stage with "Foster the People", "The Maccabees" and "The Courteeners". The main stage is filled with great bands which will blow peoples mind for sure.  In the list we find bands like Tom Delongue's "Angels & Airwaves", "Crystal Castles", "You Me At Six", "Paramore" or "The Cure", who will close the first night.(Such an epic band for the first night).









Then, Saturday 25th don't let people relax and still offers a great line-up, which is formed by a very punk, post-hardcore line up at the NME stage, formed by "Billy Talent", "Mike Snow", "The Cribs", and "At The Drive In". And a main stage composed by bands from different genres, "Odd Future", "Enter Shikari", "The Vaccines", "Florence + the Machine" and "Kasabian" setting the audience on fire.






Finally, the last day of the festival(best by far) is mainly ruled by rock and has the best end that the festival could have.
We will be able to see great alternative-indie bands like "Two Door Cinema Club","Justice", "SBTRKT" or "The Horrors" at the NME BBC stage, I'm pretty sure "The Horrors are going to kill it.
Then,the main stage blows my mind, completely, "The Gaslight Anthem", "All Time Low", "Bullet for my Valentine", "Kaiser Chiefs", "The Black Keys", and ladies and gentleman, the band closing the Reading festival 2012 is.........."Foo Fighters"!!, is not the first time the rockers from the states play in Reading and Leeds, and be sure that their performance will be epic. Due to this announcement, the band has released the audio for the concert they gave at the same festival but 17 years ago, you can listen to it here .
