Reading Festival @ Reading Festival 2001

I think this is the one we stayed in the big main hotel for. I remember sitting in the bar there when the Manics came in. I think we were back in the bar before The Manics came on.

I see The Donnas played this one, I loved them but I don't remember seeing them.

I just recently added this as I'm going to see The Cult again and I remembered I'd seen them before at Reading and thinking "the rest of today's line-up is all American, and The Cult sound AMerican but they're not.". And this was it.

I was at this one, more from this year in Paul's gig history for 2001. I have seen Cult at least twice; Reading Festival ('01), and The Cult 8424 @ Portsmouth Guildhall (2024), though I still have some bragging tagging to do so this may go up. Part of every gig I was at from '87 to 2025. It's an obvious step from my Best Gigs Ever blog post. Yeah I know it's very nerdy, let's let that go though, I'm enjoying reminiscing about this stuff.
