My 18th time seeing (The) Young Knives last night. Haven’t had a ticket in 11 years so used Tim Burgess’s ticket maker.
Can’t believe I went to see them 6 times in 2006. We did get on the guest list for a fan-only Futureheads gig at the Leadmill they were supporting.

Fantastic time at #Pyvofest 2025 at the Ukie Club in Bradford.
Beer, live music, dancing and a lot of fun. A true community gathering.
