Reading And Leeds 2010: Serj Tankian On Guns N’Fiasco
Serj Tankian thinks Guns n'Roses should be 'locked out' from the live circuit after their performance Reading 2010.
It seems everyone has an opinion on the melodramatic, bizarre, entertaining, memorable, sad and disheartening event that was Guns N'Roses headline slot at Reading 2010. Serj Tankian was not even on site but even he's got a view!
"I find it ridiculous that promoters who have been burnt so many times before still attempt to bring the same act back," he reasoned before his set at Reading.
"Promoters should just lock him out, the band haven't turned up on time, they've caused a bunch of riots in the past, I don't know what kind of contract they have or if they are paying him still but it's just not fair on any other professional playing any other timeslot at this festival."
Well said Serj. To see Mr Tankian performing at Leeds click on the gallery below.
