History of Reading Festival

Reading Festival is one of the old festivals celebrated in the UK. It is a musical festival and it was started in 1960. This festival really became very popular among the people because the only big festivals during that time were National Jazz and Blues Festival. Although it was considered to be a big event until 1976, after that Rock music started to die out. In order to change the image of the event, Fiddler took charge of the festival in the year 1989. With the changing trends, more popular bands were brought into the event like The Wonderstuff and New Order. Throughout the history of festival, changes for the better have been introduced to keep the interest of the spectators. The real change was brought in 1990s, when Grunge bands like Nirvana were seen in the event. In 1999, the Reading Festival was introduced to Leeds. In fact, from 2000 onwards, this event gained a lot of commercial popularity and an earlier booking system of Reading Festival Tickets was introduced. It is expected that the Reading Festival 2009 will also bring a lot of excitement with a good range of bands. Tickets will be available online at the end of March 2009 and people from all over the world are looking forward to attending the festival.

Shaun Morgan is the Bigger Man

Fri, Jul 25, 2008

Amy Lee allegedly wrote “Call Me When You’re Sober” about the frontman of Seether, Shaun Morgan, her ex-boyfriend. Shaun Morgan responded by saying that the fellow South African musician had left herself open to criticism.

Shaun Morgan said in an interview, “What she didn’t factor into the equation of Amyland is I now have to deal with idiots on a regular basis that take her word as gospel. I have to now deal with morons like that. The other night, I walked out of a hotel in Toronto, and someone was blaring ‘Call Me When You’re Sober’ parked right in front of the hotel. They started playing it as I walked out of the hotel. I don’t know what they were trying to prove or what their motivation was. I know it certainly wouldn’t have been the case if she hadn’t gone and told everyone, you know what I mean? It’s like kicking someone when they’re down, but she’s good at that. Whatever.”

Shaun Morgan was the bigger man with his latest album and refrained from any direct response to Amy Lee. However, one song, “Breakdown” features the lyrics, “So break me down if it makes you feel right/ And hate me know if it keep you all right.”

Rehab

You know that really strange looking English girl who sings that song about “Rehab”, that’s a brilliant tune and she has a great voice but have you heard Seether’s version of it? They did it for some website or something but man, it is such a good version. I’m not a fan of that sort of English music but you could hear that Winehouse had a brilliant voice and the way she sang “No, No, No” was always really funny and I ended up really liking the song.

Well, I probably don’t need to say how excited I was when I heard that Seether had covered it and Shaun Morgan did a brilliant job in doing a great version of it and I probably like their version even better than Amy’s original. Sorry Amy, I know you’ve had a rough time lately but when one of your favourite bands does a brilliant cover then you cant but help take their side. Who’d like to see Amy do a cover of a Seether track?

I think she’d do a good version of “Broken”, you know the acoustic one from “One Cold Night” but it wouldn’t be as good as the original though. Amy’s good but Seether is great!
