The Subways vocalist and guitarist Billy Lunn is spending the week with Rock Sound looking ahead to Reading and Leeds festival, today he tells us who he is gunning for in the backstage area:

''I don't think there is anyone I want to negatively accost at the festival,'' admits Lunn before pausing to think. ''I suppose I would throw a pint of beer over Pete Doherty if he is there. If being the word as we just played an Austrian festival and Babyshambles were meant to be playing two bands after us and guess what, he didn't turn up.''

''What kind of person who really loves music and loves performing and can't breathe without music does that? I could never get so wasted that I miss flights, disappoint fans and lose my chance to play. I live and breathe music, I love getting onstage and doing what we do. It's a privilege, I want to ask him what he thinks he is doing.''
