A Foxy Situation

02/09/2023

We ventured out to the lovely town atop of a Staffordshire moorland hill that is Leek and it's impressive Foxlowe Arts Centre for this event organised by Situation Records.
Our first time there since 2011 and the debut gig at this venue for our Dave. 
It was great to see promoters Simon & Steve again after all these years in real life rather than just on social media. 
Rail strikes which I fully support, nevertheless made it something of a nightmare for me and many others to get around (to get to the band-van pickup point in my case) and I resorted to a rare taxi ride for some of the way home. 
Nevertheless an I suspect mainly local music loving crowd were enthusiastic and attentive throughout our set and all the other acts. 
It was great to enjoy so much talent and variety.

May 5th - A Big Situation.

The Bank Holiday Weekend's Big May Birthday was held at Leek's rather marvelous Foxlowe Arts Centre by those equally marvelous people at The Situation. The acts were just too consistently fab to do them justice here and if you were one of the crowd, THANK YOU for being such attentive, enthustic music fanatics. Cheers!




Here's an article from The Leek Post on the event, featuring me on a pile of rubble!
Sally Pepper-one of many engaging performers.

Leek is beautiful, but I also liked
the dark, Satanic mills around the
corner.


My carbon-neutral travel plan!
Lovely Leek.
