Fort Minor confirmed for Carling Weekender in Reading.

[o0SugaxNxSpice0o]

Great news for Uk fans! The Carling Weekender festival which takes place in both Leeds and Reading have confirmed that Fort Minor, the solo project set by Mike Shinoda, will be performing at the Reading festival (Not Leeds though)! This event will take place from Friday 26th August, to Sunday 28th at Richfield Avenue, Reading.

Fort Minor will be on the Dance Stage on Friday 26th August. Anyone lucky enough to have gotten tickets, be sure to check them out ;)
Other bands that will be at the festival are: The Killers, Fall out boy, Funeral For A Friend, Foo Fighters, Iron Maiden plus a ton more acts, so it sounds like a great line up for all and a definate must see.

Apparently you can still book the limited number of tickets released by organisers, but they might be sold out already. For more information on tickets and the festival, visit the Reading Festival (http://www.readingfestival.com) website or the Leeds Festival (http://www.leedsfestival.com) site.
Live streaming of the bands on the main stage will be up on the day, but it doesn't say anything about streaming the footage on the dance stage :confused: .

Sounds exciting..I would like to go.. But I don't live there..

[Hahninator]

No, this is not confirmed. FortMinor.com will have all confirmed stuff, as said by Mike. He said what you are hearing now is just rumors.

[o0SugaxNxSpice0o]

Really? It's on the official website if you click on the Reading Festival one. Click on the Dance Stage >.< If it's just a rumor, I will take it down or rewrite it was a rumor. Thank you Hahn =)

[Hahninator]

:P Mike said the live show things were rumors and nothing was confirmed yet. Don't rewrite it though, it's fine :)

[o0SugaxNxSpice0o]

Um ok lol. I just hope I'm not building up false hopes or anything, but it was on the website so I wrote it heh. Hm, I'll check Fort Minor tomorrow and if they've still not announced it, I may write it off as a rumor. The Reading Festival website seems like a pretty reliable source site though.

Another reason why I wanna live in England *bangs fist on table*

hahninator is right...that's what mike said and that's what's written on his site

Sounds fun, but there's no chance I can go, even though I do live in England. Thanks for the information though. It's nice for the UK to come first for a change.

[Black_Angel]

Mwah.. one good thing about living in Engand... but I can't go anyway. Thanks for that

Is he going to be taping it?

Sadly, no. They don't allow cameras/mp3 recorders.

I would think you guys would be creative and find a way in.

[Stenners]

Lets just hope some station has the rights to broadcast the festival in the UK, BBC usualy do braodcast festivals.

[Hybrid Soldier]

Yeah, i need to hear something from FM.
