Can't Stop! The Chili Peppers' hit-packed headline set - as it happened

Do you like it hot? Or do you like it HOT!? Saturday night at Reading was ruled by California funk-rockers the Red Hot Chili Peppers, who went straight for the jugular, packing their epic, two-hour set with hit after hit after hit. Rare b-sides? No chance. New material? Just a sprinkling from their recent 11th album, The Getaway.

Here's how it went down...
