Reading matter

Now that the Carling Weekend is virtually sold out, we can enquire about something we heard from more than one source about how a lot of independently run mid-summer festivals, most prominently Truck, aren't allowed to name their lineups until Reading and Leeds have sold out. Anyone know if this is true and if so why? It does seem very odd to us - what if Goldrush are asked to play Reading?

If you did miss the rush and now have £120 burning a hole in your back pocket, why not sponsor Mike Take Your Medicine's charity hike to Latvia?

You and virtually everyone else who contributes to these comments boxes, it's turning out. (Michael Franti/Spearhead, Martha Wainwright, Nouvelle Vague and Guillemots amongst others added to the Summer Sundae bill today, BTW)
