I feel like this was something that had a critical mass around 2014 time.   No idea how you'd get that past security, mind.

Yeah at the least I thought they might back themselves to add a second London date depending on demand.

I found the 2019 sound quite iffy but was better at the back of the standing area, weirdly.   It wasn't really great on the second stage for Interpol or Courtney Barnett either, I found.

He didn't say anything derogatory about the Dark Fruits crowd? He just named them (but incorrectly aligned them with Foos).   'Dark Fruits' has been used for easily the last 10 years, plus. It's used because when it's said, you immediately know the type of music spoken about. It's not a negative connotation, just a genre of music assosciated with fans that drink specific drinks.   And yes, Reading has catered a headliner to that dark fruits crowd, continuously. The group I go with are literally the definition of Dark Fruits. They only drink Dark Fruits, and only go for that specific type of music, they think they're the connoisseurs of that music, skinny jeans baggy top, mop hair that they constantly sweep out their eyes.   Liam Gallagher > Sam Fender > Arctic Monkeys > Liam Gallagher > Liam Gallagher > 1975 > Fallout Boy > Kasabian > Biffy Clyro > Libertines > Arctic Monkeys > Biffy Clyro > Kasabian > The Strokes > Arcade Fire

Brilliant - cheers
