The Brudenell Social Club in Leeds was a pretty emotional place to be on Friday night: local heroes and longtime DiS favourites ¡Forward Russia! played their last show "for the foreseeable future" at the Brainwash Festival. Our man Graham Shackleton was there to document the proceedings with his trusty lens. While he was at it, he also snapped those noisy little tykes Rolo Tomassi over at Royal Park Cellars. Bonus!

i wos there
celebrating!
yes
yes she is
I had
never realised this. but shes fiiiiine
not to objectify women or anything...
I was there for both these bands
nursing a few injuries from the Rolo Tomassi Manchester gig a few days earlier
It was a good send off for iFR!
This festival was a fantastic showcase and I came away with about 15 CDs.
I liked the way you could go from one performance straight onto the next, and such an eclectic mix - from indie folk to Japanese thrash.
I really enjoyed Glissando, Lite, Greg Haines, Vessels & Winter North Atlantic. Sorry I missed These Monsters - I met one of the band in Jumbo recordstore on Sunday.
More pics of them russians here....

I was gonna send them into DiS but didn't bother. Pfft.

and..
getting hotter.
She's actually got hotter since I last saw them.
Sigh.
i could've been here
but when I got offered a ticket I'd already given up on getting one and got a ticket to see Dylan Moran in Leicester, subsequently ruining that event by sitting through it wishing I was here :(
My sis was at dylan moran, said it was a bad performance from the funny bastard
should av gone to leeds
I went on the Friday
and it was great. Really impressed by an all dayer that actually ran to time with no hitches! Enjoyed Forward Russia, Wintermute and That Fucking Tank. I'll have to go for the weekend next time.
