Bands that have NEVER played Reading

[thejimbola]

I just don't know how you could compare them, Airbourne are clearly a joke but no-one is laughing. Just look at their hair! Airbourne toxic event at least make an effort.

I thought they cancelled last minute. I was there and swear they werent, although i did have a few beers!

[Lithium05]

slap my wrists for not knowing teacher.. ...!

who cares if i know of them or not..? its not a competition. i didnt think this was a place that was only meant for people who know about every single band ever and have read every single sentence on this forum..

[joe_strummer]

They did a couple of songs at leeds, that's all.

They were booked though, so it's not that weird that they haven't played it i guess.

[thejimbola]

So that must have been the reason why i didnt see them at Reading then... hopefully they will feel that they owe the fans something and return in the future.. who knows.. maybe this year!!? :-)

What about Yellowcard? They've been around since the early 2000s and would be an obvious Lock up headliner.

[Azzy G]

Nickelback

[rexclark]

have glassJaw done it?

they'd have been great in the lock up

also 30 seconds to mars

good shouts on koRn, black stone cherry and airbourne too.

sepultura?

machine head?

chemical brothers?

skindred?

also tool would be great 2nd down under a heavier headliner or topping the NME tent.

Dream Theater on that day too please

KISS would be an ideal Sunday night closer for Reading!

[pigshair123]

the ukele orchestra of great britain

[thejimbola]

I'm very surprised Evanescence haven't played, they would be a good cross genre appeal type band. Little bit metal, little bit country, little bit rock n roll...
