They played 'What to Do When You Are Dead' in its entirety.

deathcrash

2024 4

METZ

at Future Yard, Birkenhead, UK

Jimmy Eat World

at O2 Victoria Warehouse, Manchester, UK

Feeder

at O2 Academy 2, Liverpool, UK

Pixies

at Albert Hall, Manchester, UK

They played both 'Bossanova' and 'Trompe Le Monde' in their entirety, which was a real treat, and thoroughly enjoyable.

2022 5

Dinosaur Jr.

at O2 Ritz, Manchester, UK

The House of Love

at O2 Academy 2, Liverpool, UK

Jimmy Eat World

at Manchester Academy, Manchester, UK

Feeder

at Manchester Academy, Manchester, UK

New Model Army

at The Live Rooms, Chester, UK

After the previous early exit of seeing the band, I was determined to see them in full again, so went on my own. Thankfully the beer didn't run out this time.

2019 6

New Model Army

at The Live Rooms, Chester, UK

My brother and I went to this show together, we left half way through the set because the venue was really overcrowded and ran out of beer. We ended up going to a pub instead and had a much better time.

Feeder

at Albert Hall, Manchester, UK

Dashboard Confessional

at The Deaf Institute, Manchester, UK

This was just an acoustic show, with Chris Carrabba performing on his own. He was in great form and the setlist included a lot of fan favourites.

Sebadoh

at Manchester Academy 2, Manchester, UK

Fuzzy Sun

at Manchester Club Academy, Manchester, UK

Support: Inhaler

I can't remember why we went to this show. The surprise was Inhaler, who were unheard of at the time. They impressed us and a quick search reveals that there's a connection with U2, namely Bono's son is in the band.

Death Cab for Cutie

at Albert Hall, Manchester, UK

Support: The Beths

2018 1

Feeder

at Manchester Academy, Manchester, UK

2017 1

Support: Demob Happy

2015 1

Death Cab for Cutie

at Manchester Academy, Manchester, UK

2013 3

Low

at Liverpool Cathedral, Liverpool, UK

Support: Barbarossa

This was a really special show, the acoustics in the cathedral were amazing and it was a really intimate experience. I'll also never forget Barbarossa's support set, which was really beautiful and atmospheric.

Jimmy Eat World

at Manchester Academy, Manchester, UK

Anberlin

at Manchester Academy 3, Manchester, UK

After a long hiatus, this was the first concert my brother and I attended together. Since then we've made up for lost time.

2007 1

Brand New

at Manchester Apollo, Manchester, UK

Support: mewithoutYou

This was the first time I saw Brand New live, we actually went to see mewithoutYou as the support act. Got there too late to see mewithoutYou, and decided to stay to watch Brand New. They blew us away!

2000 1

The Sisters of Mercy

at Rock City, Nottingham, UK

A terrible show, Andrew Eldritch seemed completely disinterested and refused to play any of the more popular songs.

1998 3

New Model Army

at Kasbah, Coventry, UK

Bauhaus

at Manchester Academy, Manchester, UK

I travelled up from Leicester to see this show with my brother. It was a bit of a let down, and probably one of those where we should have left the band unseen live.

Depeche Mode

at Wembley Arena, London, UK

This was the first time I saw Depeche Mode live, and it was a let down. Way too much ego getting in the way of the music. I was really disappointed, and it's put me off seeing them live again.

1997 1

Violent Femmes

at O2 Forum Kentish Town, London, UK

1996 1

Longpigs

at The Charlotte, Leicester, UK

1995 7

Foo Fighters

at Civic Hall, Wolverhampton, UK

Being a big Nirvana fan, I was really excited to see Dave Grohl's new band. The show was really good, and it was interesting to see how they were still finding their sound at that point.

Catherine Wheel

at The Stage, Stoke-on-Trent, UK

Mansun

at The Charlotte, Leicester, UK

R.E.M.

at Cardiff Arms Park, Cardiff, UK

Support: Belly, Del Amitri, The Cranberries

This was my first big open air concert. I haven't been to another since.

Catherine Wheel

at The Stage, Stoke-on-Trent, UK

If memory serves, this was the a warm-up show for their upcoming tour, and the band had 'Taxi Driver' film playing in the background.

Drugstore

at The Charlotte, Leicester, UK

Support: Delicatessen

Senseless Things

at L.U.S.U., Leicester University, Leicester, UK

1994 4

Stilskin

at The Charlotte, Leicester, UK

Kitchens of Distinction

at The Charlotte, Leicester, UK

dEUS

at The Charlotte, Leicester, UK

The Wonder Stuff

at Granby Halls, Leicester, UK

Support: Gigolo Aunts

1993 11

Radial Spangle

Support: Sundial, Idaho

The Levellers

at Granby Halls, Leicester, UK

Support: Chumbawamba

Catherine Wheel

at The Charlotte, Leicester, UK

Support: Sidi Bou Said

Spiritualized

at Queens Hall, Leicester University, Leicester, UK

Bumped into Daniel Ash and David J loitering by the sound desk. They were both really friendly and we had a chat about the show and their music.

Dodgy

at The Charlotte, Leicester, UK

Managed to blag our way upstairs after the show and got to meet the band. We then took them into Leicester city centre and ended up at The Fan Club.

Moonshake

at The Charlotte, Leicester, UK

Milltown Brothers

at De Montfort University, Leicester, UK

Tindersticks

at The Charlotte, Leicester, UK

Support: The Auteurs

Ride

at Empress Ballroom, Blackpool, UK

Support: The Charlatans

The infamous 'Day Tripper' show, where both bands played a shared headline set. My brother and I got a coach from Leicester to Blackpool, and we were really excited to see both bands. The show was really good. We almost missed the coach back to Leicester, but we made it just in time.

Molly Half Head

at The Charlotte, Leicester, UK

Belly

at L.U.S.U., Leicester University, Leicester, UK

Support: The Cranberries
