THAT, was one hell of a night! MRO put together a cracking set up, 3d graphics, top sound, 27000 listeners, top bands, and a massive post gig rumfest.
A review of our gig is on Manchester Musics ITC blog review.
“THE 66, I also probably know something approaching equally as well. It’s always a pleasure to listen to or see them and it’s a while since I last caught them live. I just can’t believe that they’ve somehow made themselves better still. I couldn’t find fault before – not a crack or even a hint really, but now they are just revelling in their time on stage and their audience – the event of it all really. New songs are magnificent, the wig out of “Firefly “ is still ever present – their drummer is playing what looks like a basic kit, but is locked into a click and makes it sound ten times bigger. The keyboards exert an effective psychedelic edge and the bass and guitar are, just well, awesome. Singer Danny Rimmer has upped his game – was that ever possible? – it seems yes, and I can’t possibly imagine this band just staying at this level for much longer.”
Thanks to everyone who came down, sent us messages / comments etc and we’ll see you all soon
