Pet Shop Boys have performed
in Manchester
ON Sunday, 19 February 2017, the
electronic duo, the
Pet
Shop
Boys headed over the Pennines to
Manchester. It is hard to think that these lads started out in 1981 and now have
had more than 50 million records sold worldwide! The lads are probably best
known for tracks like:- "West End Girls" and "Opportunities
(Let's Make Lots of Money)" so you always know that they will deliver a
very alternative night, despite them being very retro styled, always seems oddly
current!
Our intrepid reporter, who braved the drizzle and splattering
of light snow, near the Pennines, got to the stage, at Manchester Arena, on
time, but sadly, as the venue was so packed out, even in the official photo
section, she could not see over the crowds. But we are told musically the
show did not disappoint... We are now left asking, where is Madonna when you
need her to help our tog Jump a bit higher??? Please email us your views and
thoughts about this very popular event. Also did you manage to see the
stage? Email us to

Busted perform at Mountford Hall, Liverpool
Photographs by Jo
Forrest.
FORMED back on 2000,
Busted are an English pop rock band from
Southend on Sea, Essex, consisting of:- James Bourne, Matt Willis and Charlie
Simpson. This band is one of the UK's most successful millennial bands and is
currently completing their 'Busted
Night Driver Uk Tour.' On this tour the lads stopped off in Liverpool,
on Friday, 17 February 2017, to perform at Liverpool University Guild of
Students' Mountford Hall and Stanley Theatre. After a decade of performing, the
boys are still going strong and comprising their unique performances, in true
British Pop culture style... Thanks in part due to a successful tour with McFly,
they have continued to grow their fan base and musical repertoire, so it was no
wonder why it was a sell out show.
Busted are 1 of those few bands from the
Millennium who still manage to get the audiences flying high and this was again
a brilliant show. So were you 1 of the crowd? Let us know what was your
favourite memory from the night via emailing us to:-
