Reading Festival '89 was my first ever gig, and it's tangled up forever with New Order because of it. The sticky summer heat, spilled beer and trampled grass, the bass from Temptation vibrating up through the ground into my bones. I lost my mates during The House of Love and ended up sleeping in a 2CV. That festival's where the obsession properly started. Look back at every Reading Festival poster since it relaunched in 1989.
Use for Nigel's first ever gig and how it ties to his New Order devotion. No notable exclusions, safe personal anecdote with a real embedded link. See also New Order for the band itself.
