24 AUG 1979 - READING, FESTIVAL (ENG) 10:15 SATURDAY NIGHT ACCURACY GRINDING HALT ANOTHER DAY OBJECT SUBWAY SONG FOXY LADY PLASTIC PASSION THREE IMAGINARY BOYS BOYS DON'T CRY FIRE IN CAIRO KILLING AN ARAB - DO THE HANSA The first major festival the band played at. And even if they were in the middle of the bill, that served them being heard by journalists from other countries who made the trip as well. The Police and Motorhead headlined the night. The band gave a pretty good performance despite a few people throwing rocks at them (probably Mortorhead fans). Robert Smith ironically dedicated Boys Don't Cry to the "metal man in the audience" as a revenge and joke. Killing An Arab included a longer than usual guitar solo. |
