RAZORLIGHT - RAZORLIGHT CONCLUDE DAY ONE OF READING

RAZORLIGHT CONCLUDE DAY ONE OF READING

Razorlight have concluded the first day of action at this year's Reading festival, with sunny weather this weekend offering a reprieve from the mud.

At the festival's sister site in Leeds, Smashing Pumpkins headlined the main stage and will make the trip down to Reading for a show on Sunday.

Razorlight headline Leeds tonight, along with rockers Kings of Leon and New York band Interpol.

Something of a heat wave has hit both sites today as the much-heralded bank holiday weekend weather kicks in.

The Reading site had been heavily flooded during the rainy start to the summer and a number of camping areas have been unusable this year.

Today's highlights at the southern leg have included Good Shoes, who played the NME/Radio 1 tent with aplomb.

Meanwhile a set from Foals in the Carling stage saw huge crowds drawn to see the band rush through their frenzied tracks.
