Welcome to the Cheap Seats



Barrovian music-lovers were treated to a sneak preview of Aurelie's forthcoming football drone opera An Unorthodox 1-2 this Sunday at the annual Barrow Live festival. Adverts for defunct local businesses and bits of feedback drifted seagull-like from the precariously positioned 'acoustic kiosk' towards a largely unmoved crowd.



However, the set was curtailed shortly after the twelve minute mark when it was announced that the Wonder Stuff were ready to launch into their ubiquitous bovine anthem. Other festival highlights included a water-free hook-a-duck stall and a Herzog doppelganger disguised as a St John's ambulance volunteer.
