Gigs worth the bus fare

Right so this is just a running list of gigs I've actually been to or am proper buzzing to get to, mostly dragged mates along for moral support. Northern Quarter and the Oxford Road arches get most of the love because that's where I end up after work most Fridays. Still banging on about vinyl sounding better than whatever's coming out the venue speakers, nobody's listening. Every entry gets a verdict on the support act because honestly sometimes the opener's the best bit of the night and nobody ever gives them credit.
