Curveballs August 29th – Festival Comedown Special

Home from another excellent Reading Festival, and tonight we were looking back at some of the great sing-alongs and new musical discoveries of the weekend. From Green Day’s impromptu Saturday morning set to some of my friends jumping into the Thames to the sound of cheering from passenger boats via a giant inflatable banana going round in a circle pit… yup, won’t forget this year’s Reading in a hurry. That’s before we even get to the A-Z of festival T-shirts, an annual feature on the show – click below to hear it again!
