Gigs I've dragged people to

Right, this is the ongoing log of every gig I've bullied my mates into coming to round Manchester, mostly Northern Quarter sweatboxes but the odd arena one sneaks in when it's too big to skip. I'm still banging on about vinyl sounding better than the Spotify stream half of them are watching off their phones at the back, but that's a separate list. Every single one gets a verdict on the support act because honestly that's half the fun of turning up early and freezing outside Band on the Wall.

The list
