Last years Leeds and Reading saw the so called War On Emo take full effect with My Chemical Romance and Panic! At The Disco being bottled, but as it didn't kill them it made them both stronger and both bands went on to frankly p*ss on the the likes of The Killers and Kasabian who were slagging them off. Similarly Pearl Jam played for 20 hours continually with their first comeback gigs in years.
