The Cure rolled out a huge 31-song set at Reading Festival last night for their headline performance.
Led as ever by Robert Smith, the British band’s mammoth set featured most of their best loved songs, including the classic singles ‘In Between Days‘, ‘Friday I’m In Love‘ and ‘Boys Don’t Cry‘.
Meanwhile, over on Reading’s sister-site in Leeds, the Foo Fighters aired their own hit-packed set during their first headline appearance at the twin event since 2005, closing with a regular cover of Queen‘s ‘Tie Your Mother Down‘ and their own favourite ‘Everlong‘.
