Carling stage announced for this year's Reading & Leeds extravaganzas.

This is the bit where everyone goes, "Wow! They've added some great bands!" and some other people say, "Jesus, they do this every year, why did no one listen to me when I said they were going to add more?" Then, someone else will probably say, "Oh crap, I wish I'd bought a ticket now," some other people will laugh and the eBay touts will rub their greasy, dirty, stinky, dry-skinned hands with glee.

Ah, whatever. Animal Collective are headlining the Carling Stage. There is a god. READ THIS LIST:
