Reading and Leeds plus crazy covers

Tom Robinson plays your suggestions of favourite tracks from bygone Reading and Leeds Festivals, as well as the craziest cover versions you've heard.

Tom Robinson concludes 大象传媒 6 Music's DIY Weekend with a Now Playing special sitting in for Steve Lamacq. He plays your suggestions for favourite tracks from bygone Reading and Leeds Festivals, as well as the craziest cover versions you've heard. All this resulting in a show which spans JJ72 to Foster the People and Pixies with Hayseed Dixie, William Shatner and Arctic Monkeys taking on Girls Aloud all thrown in for good measure.

We also peruse what people are playing across the world by hijacking #nowplaying on Twitter and speak to bloggers from Slutty Fringe, The Mahogany Blog and old friends Robot Pigeon who share with us some musical tips to keep an ear out for.
