It’s been 25 years since Nirvana performed at the Reading Festival in 1992 and fans consider it to be one of their most memorable moments. It also happens to be their last ever U.K. performance.

The setlist for the concert was epic. The band sang their classics like Breed, Sliver, In Bloom and Smells Like Teen Spirit (but not before playing Boston’s More Than A Feeling, a song Nirvana have been accused of ripping off for their massive breakthrough hit). For the encore, the band performed more of their own songs, plus covers of Love Buzz and Smoke on the Water.
