Levellers – O2 Academy, Leicester

Posted at 11:10 pm, Friday December 16, 2011 by rich

Traffic problems on the way up, and an unannounced change to an 6pm start meant that we arrived too late to see Back To The Planet, which I’m not happy about.

Despite that letdown, Dreadzone were good, and the Levellers were on good form, although they did manage to mess up The Riverflow by forgetting the lyrics.

An annoyingly early finish of 22:15 meant we were home early, still bitter about missing Back To The Planet.

21 hours to move between two gmail servers? That’s a bit shit.
