Fucked Up @ Sound Control

How are you all even surviving in this weather?! I'm paler than Casper the friendly Ghost and have spent waaay too long out BBQ'ing in Fallowfield and parading around Piccadilly, someone pass the factor fifty, sharpish! Last week, I took my little Beaky along to watch Titus Andronicus, Metz and Fucked Up all on the same bill for Noisey's Manchester stint. It was sweaty, painful and GREAT- I have some shots and accompanying words up on Noisey over here!

Interview // Fucked Up

I FINALLY treated myself to some r&r after a "few" post-shift staff drinks turned into the inevitable continuation of sharing a bottle of Morgans Spiced, a mass game of musical bumps and drunk Sunday morning breakfasts in Wetherspoons (I don't know either...). I've been hammering deadlines like my life depends on it and it is thankfully beginning to pay-off after gaining a first on my music journo assessment and a mostly-successful news day assessment this morning, yeah buddy! Anyway, enough of my humble brags, I interviewed the gentleman that is Damian Abraham of Fucked Up as we disturbed the bands three-course-dinner to talk Pot Noodles, Kendrick Lamar and why professional WWE wrestlers wouldn't return his emails. The wonderful Harriet accompanied me and bought me gin cocktails and ginger beers, what can I say, she knows your girl well! You can catch it all over here with a few of my shots from their show on Noisey- ciao for now!
