Reading 2014: Friday Live Updates

DIY’s right in the thick of the action on day one of Reading 2014. We’ll be bringing you reports, interviews, backstage access, maybe even a cheeky #Didowatch.

Highlights from day one can be found in today’s nifty Spotify playlist. Let’s see - Drenge, Slaves, Paramore and The Districts are hot on the tail of Gerard Way this afternoon. Then the likes of Eagulls, The Orwells and Twin Atlantic join in on the fun. That’s not forgetting AlunaGeorge, Lizzo, SBTRKT, Warpaint, Vampire Weekend, Temples and bloody hell, it’s going to be nearly impossible to keep up with all of this. So why not follow our live updates, where we’ll be trying to spot Mario Cuomo at a nearby bar downing an illicit looking bottle of wine, and tracking down Metronomy’s Joseph Mount in order to give him a proper bear hug.

You’ll find all the stage times over on the official Reading 2014 website.
