Reading Rock Festival in 1978 was essentially a three day riot. John Peel was constantly bottled by the crowd as did a lot of the bands. Sham 69 was a full scale set to with the crowd on the stage and fighting in ghe crowd.
"John Keel's a punt" ringing out, remember it well.
In one of the smallest venues in Brighton West Street - Siouxie and the Banshees was hot sweaty and full of spitting punks.
The New Regent, I was there too.
