Famously called "The Bay ta Band" in John Cusack's 'The High Fidelity'.
3EPs is mint, everything else is toss.

What was the audience like? By which I mean age profile, gender, clothing etc. |

Umm, advancing years to say the least, 35 - 60 out for a bit of a christmas party. Amazingly they sold 3000 tickets each in Liverpool and manchester and 6000 in sheffield. At £29.50 a ticket!
Surprised by that to say the least.

I'm pretty sure the Steel City Tour rolled into Newcastle, twas on the news for some reason. 02/Carling Academy in Newcastle is on the same road as me... But a 20 minute walk away.

Been there many times. Worked for them a few years ago running islington academy.
Didnt do that particular show as it was promoted by people I dont work for. But looking at the set it would have been a bit of a squeeze in there to say the least. Big set for something so retro.
