You know you are getting old when you go to a gig and its just too loud - well that's what happened to me last night! We went to see Limehouse Lizzy - a tribute to Thin Lizzy - and my ears are still ringing!
Here is a photo of the band on stage but I actually prefer the photo underneath. The music was so loud it actually knocked the bottles and glasses onto the floor! (Yes, I did actually see this with my own eyes!) Talk about a health and safety risk!
Also this week we visited an exhibition on album cover art at the newly restored Civic Theatre in Barnsley.
This exhibition runs until May 1st and is well worth a visit. Also entry is free!
Below are photos of just a few of the album covers some of which brought back memories for me and show that I was not always an old fogey!
I never really liked the Happy Mondays but this sleeve is a great inspiration for a quilt!
Also on display at the Civic is this exhibition featuring photos of the Arctic Monkeys. They are a local band from Sheffield but some of them studied at Barnsley College. Talking of Barnsley College, one of the main buildings is being demolished giving me loads of great photos - here is just one of them.

Hi Janet
The album covers exhibition looks worth a visit. I've got tracks from Born in the USA amongst my downloads on the shuffle, which I "plug into" on my way to work! Pleased to see the college building being demolished it has looked a state.
