Madchester is still alive

It was a first time visit to a new venue for us last Friday, the Carling Islington Academy. For those of you who have brain cells that haven't been completely fried from the 90's, this venue is where the legendary AWOL club started back in the day. Dark and dirty venue for dark, dirty and banging D'n'B night.

The venue is now been taken over by our favorite beer sponsoring gig people, Carling, and it was lager, lager, lager for The Complete Stone Roses.

We had a 100% authentic Manc with us too in Jim so we knew we would be in for a good night.
All the tunes were there in opening with I Wanna Be Adored set the tone for a good night. Other highlights were Fools Gold (of course) Made of Stone and the mighty, mighty I Am The Resurrection. Great night and great mic twirling. Worth 7/10 for just getting such a small crowd to crowd surf.
