As the news has developed through the night, and the morning, I am deeply shocked by last night’s terrible events at the Manchester Arena. My thoughts go out to all those affected, those who have lost loved ones or otherwise injured. I couldn’t imagine what it was like for those who were there. Obviously live music is something special to me, and being part of a something which brings so many people together is sacred, and it’s horrible this has happened.
Both Warrington and Manchester have had their share of atrocities, and we have always come back stronger.
Music is a powerful bond, and should bring people together, we cannot let ourselves be divided or be fearful. Be safe.
