Porcupine Thief 11/2/17

"Of course the bonus of going to see a particular band at a festival or a gig is that you often come away praising another band you have seen for the first time. Turn back the clock 12 years and the WRC went to see Caravan at The Whitchurch Festival and ended up seeing The Pineapple Thief’s very first gig – and as they say the rest is history. Although seeing them at numerous gigs since then – this was only the second time at a Festival. Despite the non-stop rain - a warm welcome of “Bruce….!!” greeted TPT frontman Bruce Soord as he, John Sykes (bass), Steve Kitch (keyboards) and Dan Osborne (drums) entered the fray." Is it really 18 months since we last saw WRC favourites TPT at Ramblin' Man? Well, we will put that right at the Islington Assembly Hall tonight - the icing on the cake being Porcupine Tree's very own Gavin Harrison guesting on drums!
