My Life Story at the Astoria at Christmastime should have been a joyous festive occasion. But all was not well in the world of Scruffy.
All the gigs of my life: Gig 28 – Curve, Tuesday, November 18, 1997, King’s College
My one and only chance to see the band who introduced me to indie.
Suede at the Hammersmith Apollo, Saturday, 13th of October, 2018
The best Suede gig I’ve ever been to. An exhaustingly uplifting, rioutously emotional triumph.
All the gigs of my life: Gig 27 – Super Furry Animals, Thursday, October 30, 1997, Kentish Town Forum
I’d seen them supporting the Manics, and as part of the Reading Festival line-up, but this gently magical night was, finally, my first chance to see the magnificent Super Furry Animals headlining their own show.
Paul Draper at Union Chapel, Tuesday, 2nd of October, 2018
A short but sweet set from Paul Draper in a majestic church setting.
Kylie Minogue at the O2, Thursday, 27th of September, 2018
An incredible night of pop from an icon at the peak of her power. As Kylie herself sang, WOW WOW WOW WOW!
