Live Review: The World is a Beautiful Place… + mewithoutYou (Birmingham, 12/02/16)
Here’s a great co-headline tour. Two giants from the US emo scene playing the smallest room at the O2 Institute in Birmingham while Sum 41 headlined the big room downstairs.

Every time a band like Turnover plays in at The Bodega in Nottingham it gets surprisingly busy, see: The Hotelier, etc, but this show was packed to the walls from the second doors opened. Local band Little Bribes kicked things off with their brand of alt pop-punk/emo and played a ridiculously confident set for a band […]
