Resurrection: The Stone Roses Tribute + Dirty Circus
The band are the closest you’ll ever get to the look, feel and sound of the Manchester legends, perfectly recreating those classic tracks but with an energy and attitude that makes every gig they play more like an event.
Dirty Circus combine the mutant disco of Talking Heads and ESG with the sprawling, euphoric electronica of early ‘90s Weatherall.
Earlier in the day, ‘80s Casual Classics will be hosting a pop-up shop featuring an extended DJ set from Let’s Go Back’s JP McGowan.

Noel Burke (ex- Echo & The Bunnymen) performs Reverberation
Noel Burke ex-Echo & The Bunnymen performs the album Reverberation.
Noel Burke was offered one of the most difficult gigs in rock when he was offered the job of fronting Liverpool legends, Echo & The Bunnymen, following the departure of enigmatic frontman, Ian McCulloch, in 1989.
The former St Vitus Dance frontman from Belfast joined up with remaining EATB members Will Sergeant and Les Pattinson and released the album Reverberation the following year in 1990.
Burke toured the UK and USA with Echo & The Bunnymen and released 2 further singles before the band dissolved in 1992.
Although not received well at the time, Reverberation has gone on to become a cult classic and has gained more favourable reviews as the years have passed since its release.
To celebrate the 35th Anniversary of the release of Reverberation, Noel Burke and full band will be playing a few select dates around the UK.

W2: A Tribute to U2 | St. Patricks Day Weekend
Last St Patrick’s Day we lost the U2 tribute we had booked at very short notice and W2 stepped in with only a few days to go. It was far from an ideal situation but we were all absolutely blown away by how good they were, so obviously we’re doing it again this year.
Nearly but not-quite better than the real thing, this lot are as close as you’ll get to the actual U2 experience without paying a fortune to still need binoculars to see the band. Trust us, if yr a fan, you will not be disappointed.
