Back From The Big City Dirty Pretty Things Last Hurrah, & Peter Doherty Postponed


Curtain Raiser In Rome


The Last Hurrah London



I returned from London last week and celebrated Chritmas at home.

My trip to London was to see/photograph Peter Doherty at the Rhythm Factory which was unfortunately postponed - I hope I can make it to one of the rearranged gigs.

I did make it to see the Last Hurrah - Dirty Pretty Things at Astoria 2 on 20 December.

I posted some photographs on Flickr

The gig to me thankfully seemed short on sentimentality. It was more a large sigh of relief than a tearful farewell. It will be interesting to see what 2009 brings for the band members - I wish them well.

I was at their first gig in Rome some images from the gig are here:
