Well ..after 12 years , Travis returned to Toronto .... Finally!
I purchased tickets 8 months ago and the night was here and of course, it's the night of the biggest snowstorm this season in Toronto. Huge lineup to get in, everyone getting belted by high winds and cold and snow, every minute outside made the anticipation for the show even more intense.

Apparently Tunbridge Wells Forum was once a toilet? It seems lovely tonight anyway, and full of fans waiting for Magic Numbers on their 20th anniversary tour. Most venues are sold out including this one, the last of the tour (although they just added Guernsey, possibly for a post tour holiday!?).

I couldn't have been more wrong... there I was waxing lyrical before the gig that this was a 'no compromise' band who'd simply play their new album with barely a nod to their rich 20-year back-catalogue.

I have TheRockClub to thank for introducing me to the music of Ben de la Cour. I reviewed his album 'Shadow Land' for them in 2021, and subsequently picked it as my Album of the Year. It was such a major discovery for me that I then went and got Ben's entire back catalogue through Bandcamp, and I participated in the crowdfunder for the follow-up, the Jim White produced 'Sweet Anhedonia', which came out last year.

The impressive Bridgewater Hall in Manchester was opened in 1996 as a home for Manchester's Halle Orchestra . There are soft coverings on some of surfaces presumably to reduce the echo and whole thing stands on a bed of 280 giant springs so that nearby train and road noise doesn't interfere with the music. It's a venue designed and built for music to be played in, heard and appreciated, a perfect choice for this evening of exceptional musicianship.
