Local : Steve C was on fire on home turf (OCS dates for Feb) Regret : Gigs are better when you down the front standing and swaying (sorry dear) Gripe: Why oh why to some folks go and spend half the night up and down from their seats, if you’re there for the music don’t spend the . . . → Read More: Paul Weller LG Arena 26th November 2010  |
