Reading Festival Reading, Berkshire
Blur headlined, not a very strong lineup I don't think. I was working mostly, and managed to lose my first mobile phone that work lent me.
Can't remember what bands I saw, surely I would have seen the Dandy Warhols? But look at the lineup poster, would I not have sought out Snuff and Suicidal Tendencies? Don't remember doing so. Maybe I was working too hard. Coldplay bottom of the bill on the second stage too.
I was at this one, more from this year in Paul's gig history for 1999. I have seen Blur probably six times; Glastonbury ('94), Glastonbury (1998), Goldsmiths College (1999), Reading Festival ('99), The Brighton Centre (1999), and London Astoria ('03), though I still have some bragging tagging to do so this may go up. Part of every gig I was at from '87 to 2024. 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.
