I'm fucking livid. This is like the waiter saying "sorry Sir, we didn't haven't have the steak so the chef took a big shit on a plate for you. No you can't have your money back"
I think there should have been a replacement in the same genre like Metallica or QOTSA or Royal Blood. Someone like chilli peppers would be awesome too
@@Mlb42356 but come on, you think that replacing rage with the 1975 is a stupid option. It's silly and especially those who come to see rage, I will be trying to sell my tickets. I would've loved to have seen a band with a similar genre replace them
@@saminarty9868 yeah but it’s 2 weeks away. You can’t just rock up to a massive band with that short notice and get them. Famous people are very busy. The 1975 were probably already playing and just bumped up.
It is a massive kick in the teeth. Lets be honest guys as music lovers the 1975 is no where near comparable to RATM and I cant tell Leeds didnt really care to explore other options.
i think people forget the 1975 are such a good band, yes maybe disappointing that RATM have pulled out and that randl haven’t replaced them with an equally rocky band but i still think they will be great live :)
In the context of it being on such short notice, 1975 are probably the biggest act they could get in that fit in with the overall vibe of the festival and there really wasn't anyone genuinely viable on the same level as Rage available. Feel for the people who booked day tickets and travel explicitly to see RATM. Not even that big a fan of RATM but the 1975 is a pretty jarring switch in tone and imo a massive downgrade/
They could’ve done better with the replacement for sure 🤷♂️ you better believe I’ll still be starting a mosh pitt during the 1975, wearing a rage against the machine shirt……They use force to make you do what the Reading festival committee have decided you must do! 🔥⭐️

Hahahaha so true this made me laugh
@@scottbackler8700 you have to laugh or you'd cry
As somebody who is paying nearly 600 quid on ticket, travel from scotland, camping things etc it's a massively wank replacement

Two weeks before the event? You’ve got to admit that R&L won’t have millions of options

The 1975 are not a headliner in my opinion 🤷♂️ ideally would’ve replaced with another thrashy/rock/metal band
@@scottbackler8700 yeah i get you, like in terms of pop we already have the arctic monkeys i guess
great replacement! i’m sure loads of ppl will be happy with that (+ that clue on matty’s story yesterday basically sealed the deal for me)

Nah it’s a mockery the crowd are going to be static
Just not as big or even the same genre as Rage. Beyond disappointing.
erm this is a joke!!! Got two tickets not going , so pissed!!!!!
Should’ve been QOTSA
They cancelled their entire summer tour and they aren’t doing anything. Reading can’t do anything about it.
I am fuming
Amazing replacement
Very different but incredibly worthy replacement. Over the moon personally
Honestly such a shame , just a load of shit as a a replacement but cest la vie , will just make most i suppose .
Anyone else is better
awful replacement and cant even get a refund.
Absolutely shite replacement. Makes no sense whatsoever
Absolutely buzzing
Fuming
