Reading Festival 2007 is still several months away and I’m already excited, so excited that I still haven’t picked who’s going with me for free, yep you heard me right, last year I was a winner on the Microsoft Windows Live Sessions Fans Competition which gave me the chance to go with a friend (or someone very special ) to one of the various Major UK Music Festivals this year.

But the bands playing have not been announced yet so I have no idea who will be there, though it has apparently been confirmed by NME (New Musical Express) Magazine that the follwing bands will be playing at Reading Festival 2007:

• Razorlight
• Smashing Pumpkins
• Red Hot Chili Peppers
• The Gossip
• Fall Out Boy
• Lostprophets
• NOFX
• The View
• Ian Brown
• Interpol
• Bloc Party

But hey that could change and as you probably know rumours are everywhere, including here, as I would love to know what bands you think will be playing at Reading Festival 2007, could it be any of these?

• +44
• Alterkicks
• Ash
• Billy Talent
• Bloc Party
• Blur
• Cooper Temple Clause
• Courtney Love
• Fall Out Boy
• Garbage
• Ian Brown
• Interpol
• Kaiser Chiefs
• Kasabian
• Larrikin Love
• Lostprophets
• Mumm-Ra
• NOFX
• Patrick Wolf
• Queens of the Stone Age
• Razorlight
• Red Hot Chilli Peppers
• Smashing Pumpkins
• Sonic Youth
• The Gossip
• The Horrors
• The Jesus and Mary Chain
• The King Blues
• The Klaxons
• The Maccabees

Or is it someone else, let me know what you think before the 26th of march 2007 when apparently the Headliners/Line Ups for this years festival will be annnounced.
