After a spiritual afternoon in Liverpool, visiting some art, and getting drunk in The Cavern (it’s what Ringo would have wanted), we made the trans-Penine journey to Harrogate. Fantastic to be in Harrogate as usual, much kindness and hospitallity from Oz, great sets from his new band (name escapes me), The Dauntless Elite (stand-up comedy interspersed with melodic hardcore) and Earth to Mars. Best nights sleep of the tour so far to boot ! No offence to the denziens of Stoke, but we’re going to make the most of Harrogate this afternoon before we set off. See you in Stoke !
