Reading and Leeds Festivals - 30 great moments
One of the most iconic images in Reading Festival history was Kurt Cobain’s wheelchair-bound entrance in 1992. Pushed onstage by journalist Everett True, wearing a surgical gown and wig, Kurt was making a statement about media coverage of his drug habits. It was a memorable start to a heroic, awe-inspiring performance that has gone down in history.
