Had a blast last night at the final @a_affectionate gig. Lots of happy punters including several members of the late, great Billy Mckenzie’s immediate family who thankfully loved it and danced their socks off!

A tiny snippet of @a_affectionate negotiating their way through that cheeky bar of 5/4 during their reimagining of The Associates’ track “Deeply Concerned”.

Another from our @a_affectionate show at The Voodoo Rooms last Sunday. A clip of “Party Fears Two” with several members of Billy Mackenzies immediate family dancing at the front. Quite emotional really. x

Great photo by Will Wilson from ⁦@voodoorooms⁩ Sunday night!

Love this very atmospheric shot by @Worobec and Audrey looking great as always. Thanks for the nod to ‘the hair’. ✂️
