Live At Reading

Nirvana’s appearance at the 1992 Reading Festival was the band’s second time performing at the annual music festival, and their first since the success of their second album, “Nevermind”, elevated them to the position of the biggest rock band in the world. It was also their final concert in the United Kingdom. The band’s first appearance at Reading had been on 23 August 1991, when they played an approximately 40-minute set on the afternoon of the first day of the festival, during their two-week European tour with American rock band Sonic Youth. The 30 August 1992 concert had Nirvana headlining the third and final night of the festival. Cobain had curated the day’s bill, which featured acts like the Melvins, Screaming Trees, L7, Mudhoney, Teenage Fanclub and Pavement.
