UK Tour / Show #4 / Sheffield

After taking two lovely days off in Nottingham visiting my aunt, eating lovely food and visiting Goose Fair, we took the bus to Sheffield. The driver of our Flixbus was this amazing guy from New Zealand who invited people to come and sit in ‘First Class’ at the front of the bus so that he had someone to talk to. We arrived in Sheffield and headed for the Sidney and Matilda, it’s a venue that has shows most nights and had a great atmosphere as well as a great sound technician Daniel who was brilliant. For dinner, from the recommendations of the Sheffield based band Ye Woodbeast (who we didn’t play with but are great you should check them out), we went to the Rutland Arms and had some amazing vegan food, including a kimchi and cauliflower butty, loaded chips with mushrooms and a stuffed pepper. They also had lots of Czech beers and the whole place was filled with amazing bric-à-brac. We played with two bands ‘The Harlettes’ who were from Manchester and ‘Monqi’ from Sheffield, both were great. Overall the show was the most well attended and well received of the tour, so we came off stage with a nice feeling and a lovely impression of Sheffield. Hopefully we will be back someday.

Here's Right Way Up from Sidney and Matilda, Sheffield (05/10/2026). At one point the sequencer tried imposing another song on it, hence the funny mashup in the first verse for a bit.

PS: We might release more from this show since we were given soundboard recording of it by the sound technician. Hopefully soon!
