Lostprophets

As befits their recent Kerrang award for Best British Band, Lostprophets get the top British billing on what is the traditional rock evening at Reading. For some reason, though, they seem strangely muted. Maybe they are already used to being higher up the bill than this. Even so, in their tenth year, you would expect Ian Watkins & Co to put in more than they do here. Despite the frenetic "4:AM Forever" and the classic "Last Train Home", you got the distinct feeling that they would rather have been somewhere else.
