Lovely afternoon at The Potting Shed. Chatting about Belle and Sebastian as it goes, with a friend who had also seen them in the early days. He said Manchester, I think their earliest Manchester gig are the Town Hall gigs that I went to in December 1997. I think their first gigs outside Scotland were the two night's supporting Tindersticks at the ICA, then there's one at the Borderline that I would have LOVED to have been at. Then back to Scotland, then Gloucester, then New York, then the Union Chapel gig that I was at.

A clear sky and a gentle breeze, 15 - 24℃.
