M.I.A.

Ok, reposting some of this in color: on our way to Sunderland we stopped at the Pete Shelley mural in Leigh. Sunderland, far to the north, was another great show. Paul from the band Splitbox opened with an impromptu acoustic set that was fantastic, what a voice! Then Diaz Brothers offered up some great melodic punk — killer band. Bleakness played another great set, they sounded so good. And there are a few shots from walking around town, plus Keith from Manchester came with friends to the show in Liverpool and then Sunderland also! Had some beers and a good chat after the show — cheers mate!

Alright, if this doesn’t work I’m throwing my phone in the river. Here’s Liverpool in color, with some Lemmy at Stoke on Trent and the site of Clay Records (Discharge) along the way. Last photo is an M.I.A. set list created by a fan — stoked we could play most of it!
