Leeds Carling Weekend 2002

Well it was another cracking festival with the highlight definitely being Guns'n'Roses but as per usual there was a down side.

• "A quick message to all the w*nkers who wrecked the place, well done, I'm sure brainless tw*ts like you really enjoy the sight of destruction (it probably makes a change from sitting in your sad little bedrooms at mummy & daddy's house playing with yourself). Anyway, when the festival doesn't go ahead next year it's because of you, congratulations you've got what you wanted. All the rest of us who can have a good time without breaking stuff had a good time & tried to respect our surroundings." - Emlyn (Editor of Leeds365.com)

• "I'm really pissed off with the mindless violence at the end of the Leeds festival, there really was no need and spoiled what was a superb weekend." - Dicky Allen (Sheffield)

• "Well I had a fu****g brilliant time @ the Leeds festival, stop moaning people! & Irish Derek if u happen 2 read this get in touch, we got split up on sun nite :)." - Claire (m'bro)

• "Where do u start, the amount of great bands, GnR, feeder, ash, offspring, foo fighters, janes addiction, white stripes and so so many more. Whats more the weather wasn't that bad, food and beer was a bit cheaper than expected. Myself and family really enjoyed the weekend of getting down and dirty, drunk, and listening/seeing some great bands and music.
  I only hope the idiots who thought it would be a good idea to set fire to the bogs and generally tar us all with the image of mindless trouble makers. We are me 31, wife 38, daughter 16 and her boy friend 17, think its a great weekend for the whole family, lets hope we see all our old friends in 2003. Rock On." - Chris (Birmingham)

• "My god they actually showed up.  Guns n Roses also played one of the best sets of the weekend, all is forgiven.  As for the small outbreaks of post-festival rioting it could've been worse (woodstock '99 anyone?).  You should be expecting that kind of conduct at a rock festival.  Anyway good weekend no drawbacks at all.  lets hear some praise for Andrew WK who put on the most energetic show ever." - David
