Great stuff, I do love Q.O.T.S.A Saw them at Newcastle, think it was last year, they were great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misrule Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 (edited) I was there. They sounded huge but the set seemed short. Then f-ing Guns 'n Roses kept us standing around for an hour. The bass heads looked like two Ampegs to me, one a vintage thing, but I was a fair way back.

butlerk02 Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 Just in case anyone wants to watch it : ) [url="http://www.bbc.co.uk/music/festivals/readingandleeds/2010/artists/queensofthestoneage/"]http://www.bbc.co.uk/music/festivals/readi...softhestoneage/[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EssentialTension Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 Didn't see that but did see them at Reading two years ago. They were extremely good. RATM followed them and, in my view, were even better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluesparky Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 Mumford & sons were incredible. It's not really my cup of tea, but the crowd was heaving, and they were singing like i've never heard a crowd sing before. The singer was visibly gobsmacked and did a good job of actually getting his words out to their biggest song (not sure what it's called). All in all a nice sunny day festival set. Pendulum were loud.

bluesparky Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 I did catch some of QOTSA, i didn't know they were playing so i was chuffed to be able to catch (some of) their set. Very cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we staggered back to QOTSA, where I'd have happily stayed Never listen to young people Cheers Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rig looked like one old SVT the other case looks like a rack with preamp/compressor & effects, two 8x10s. QOTSA were great. Pendulum were great too (but don't tell my daughter she will only say "told you so!!" ) Edited August 30, 2010 by Sonic_Groove Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
