    Away from all the trials and tribulations of BFC, courtesy of my daughters, I was at Manchester Academy last night to see FDC.
    Awesome night. Wanted to share with the muzos on here. They are a sight and sound to behold. Like a hurricane blowing through the mind and soulIf you have a few minutes to spare, listen up.

    Was lucky enough to catch both Murder Capital and Fontaines at Brudenell. Both outstanding. Murder Capital are playing Brude again next Saturday, by the way.

    M(h)aol are another brilliant Irish post-punk band. Watch out for 'em..

    Seen them a couple of times pre-lockdown. Dogrell was the sound track to my heart surgery recovery, used to put it on my my headphones and cross train for the duration. I get emotional listening to it now.
