Arcade Fire 2010

It wasn’t fantastic (not in anyway bad either) but if that’s the worse set you’ve seen at reading, can only think you’ve seen a handful!

Most have been mentioned already Chilis 2007, AM 2009, Ian Brown 2009

But I'll throw in Blink 182 2010 - Horrifically out of tune, but the crowd atmosphere saved it somewhat. 

At the Drive In 2012 - I remember all the hype about how amazing they were supposedly going to be, but they were probably the worst band I have ever seen. Just awful.

Only been to Leeds once, was working and earning big, never been to Reading.

Worst sets that year (can't remember what year) - all off them. Sound was dreadful, it was better backstage than out front.

Anyway it's a dreadful event (wouldn't call it a festival), no idea why anyone goes.

Cerebral Ballzy, early/mid 2010's in The Pit. The lead singer had a fight with a security guard.

I remember them, their front man used to throw up on stage. I saw them on a tiny stage at a festival (not Reading but I can't remember which one) and the entire crowd was waiting for Odd Future who were on afterwards and their amateur chaotic punk routine didn't impress the crowd at all.

Yeah, I saw them in Bristol years ago. The lead singer was absolutely steaming drunk and spent half of the show either lying on his back or trying to avoid falling off stage.

I see him at the bar hours before the show (yes I was as bad as him but I wasn’t on stage haha) and he was polishing off the drink then.

Still wasn’t a bad show though, haha.

What happened to them? Are they still around? Just had a quick google and the trail goes cold at about 2014.

Blink in 2010 was one of the worst performances ive seen period and i WAS a HUGE fan. I walked away half way through.
