00:00Hi, my name's Pete. I'm in a band called Fall Out Boy and I'm at Reading Festival in a bunch
00:07of rubbish right now. I'm at day three here, I believe.
00:11How's everybody doing? We are The U's. We're from Provo, Utah. We're here at Reading and
00:16just played our show. Amazing time.
00:20I'm Frank.
00:21I'm Stuart.
00:22We're in Gallows and we're backstage at Reading 2007.
00:26This is our second time playing Reading and Leeds and I mean it's one of the best festivals
00:33in the whole entire world and definitely like some of the biggest shows you'll ever see
00:38in your whole life. So we couldn't be more excited to be here and be back for our second
00:43time and it's fucking epic.
00:47I watched a little bit of The U's and I watched some bands at Leeds, they were good.
00:53I watched Nine Inch Nails. Yeah, Nine Inch Nails were good. Billy Talent was good.
00:57Didn't get to see any other bands on the other stages because we're always stuck.
01:01Where did you wake up?
01:01Doing these fucking interviews, thanks.
01:03Where did you wake up?
01:04Where did you wake up?
01:05I woke up at a hotel in London.
01:08I woke up in my own sick on a bus. I haven't sleep.
01:12Oh, it was great. Leeds was awesome. We saw a lot of good bands. We had to hang out with
01:18our friends at Define Glory and Chip Class Heroes and The U's and then we went to Scotland
01:24the next day and now we're here at Reading.
01:26These were fucking fantastic.
01:27Yeah, I had a great time. These were wicked.
01:28These were amazing. It was the best show we've ever played until we get on stage today.
01:32It blew my mind. It was amazing. So if you were there and you were in the crowd, thank you
01:36very much.
01:37Are we getting the leads?
01:39Walk in.
01:39Lane.
01:40Lane.
01:41Yeah.
01:42I don't think that I've ever seen a bigger wall of death in my life during our set.
01:48I mean, I thought that thousands of people were about to be killed.
01:52Are you sticking around to watch anyone?
01:54Nah.
01:55I mean, I think the tough thing about going to a festival is when you see a band and
01:58you don't really know any of their songs. So we tried to incorporate some covers but
02:01at the same time we wanted to kind of alienate the people with the covers. So it's like Michael
02:05Jackson, The Power of Love, Akon. Stuff where it's like, oh, I know the words but I kind of
02:10fucking hate that dude.
02:13What's next for you? Going on?
02:16Dinner. Lunchtime after this. See what kid announced the offer.
02:20What?
02:22Good.
02:23Great.
02:24I want to do these interviews as quickly as possible so that I can go out and watch some
02:27bands and then just hang out on our stage because you've got fucking municipal waste,
02:32cancer bats, ghost of a thousand. They're all our bros. Do you know what I mean? They're
02:36all like good friends of ours and I just want to get back there and party with them.
02:39Newfound glory hanging out. It's going to be a good show today.
02:43They escaped from the US. They got my name and my number. So I'm not allowed back in.
02:49I think we have a really extensive rider but here we get ships and water.
02:55Yeah, I mean I think we have a pretty long rider but I think that Smashing Pumpkins rider maybe takes
03:00care of ours.
03:02Favorite festival so far would have to be Reading today. Just a great time. It's such a beautiful, nice day
03:10out here. The sun is shining.
03:13Seems like a lot of people are pissed and ready to rock. So it's just, it's probably today. Today's probably
03:20our best show.
03:21We'll never forget that.?",

03:23hospitals. We
03:23it's in the city but I don't know. No,
03:24We could
03:24just spend time here so work. He needs
03:24to be one. No,
03:24no, no, no. We shouldn't
