Reinvigorating times at Night & Day Cafe last night with the venue being everything it’s supposed to be.

Big love to Piccadilly Records, Michael Head & The Red Elastic Band, The Orielles, TVAM, Pasta Paul, Kickin' Pigeon, Jason Boardman and Luke Una.

“On [Night & Day’s] 30th anniversary, the council celebrated by serving them a noise abatement notice.... Manchester city council is a national poster for failing to join up their left, right and middle hands – their environmental, planning and licensing departments.”

I spoke to @guardian about Night & Day Cafe. A key point here, Manchester City Council’s position doesn’t hold water. Restrict a music venue’s programming and you could fatally compromise the whole structure. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/nov/27/manchester-night-and-day-cafe-venue-closure-noise-complaint

#Art from one year ago care of the wonderful Tony Husband.

Night & Day Cafe's hearing is next Tuesday, and this has been a long and torturous time for them. Here's hoping that integrity and good sense prevails.

Also, it's testament to Tony's genius that he managed to really capture this old chunk of coal in just a few lines.
