Well, actually I don’t have any highlights from Leeds and Reading yet, but we’ll post ‘em asap. In the meantime, here’s video of two concerts by two bands that we’ve been telling you about recently: The Big Pink and The XX. Highly recommended.

The XX
The Big Pink
UPDATE: Generally the BBC and NME shut these down rather quickly, but for those of you who follow our RSS feed, here are a few treats from Reading.

UPDATE #2: Well, you waited too long. Sure enough the BBC shut down most of the videos we posted, so we’ve removed them. Their process of selecting which videos to pull is strange at best. Pulling Radiohead and Arctic Monkeys makes sense. Pulling The Prodigy? Odd, but ok. Leaving White Lies online? Thanks! Not pulling The Horrors? Oh you’re just cruel Mr. BBC!

White Lies

I can’t stand The Horrors, but lets watch together and learn….

The big hype was over The XX and trust us, they’re something special.

and finally, here’s one of our past interview subject; The Joy Formidable. NME’s on board, are you?

and electric (not the best quality, but a great performance)
