First year at comp, what an era for music. Bands like Specials, Jam, Beat, Selector, Dexys and these groups shaped my musical life. 54 now, and still love them all. Timeless classic, thanks lads. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Attended the second night of the Old Vic gigs and up there with the very best performances of any band I've seen in my seventy years on earth. The intensity was incredible and I half expected Kevin Rowland to leap into the crowd and start scrapping at any moment. Saw them again a year later at the Shaftsbury Theatre and, although still a brilliant gig, Kevin was a lot more chilled and polite and the previous year's intensity was missing. ❤
