    The wind was right there, all around the edge of the little stage. Leaves move like dancing and the flutter of old hearts, joy of old friends. Such a gift. Yes, ‘everybody struggles with it.’

    Saw then play Manchester 3 weeks ago.
    Awesome gig and band. The best gig I have seen since 1989.
    For me now the best band in the world.

    Thank you so much for posting this. A wonderful set and an important cause. I share the 'everybody' sentiment.

    I love that About Today has been able to kinda morph into something else for him. This too shall pass. There is hope…. but this tunnel is really f*ing long, guys.

    awww this is heartbreaking and wonderful at the same time
    and, AJR, (if you ever find this comment) could 2 of their songs be any more relevant?
    maybe in time we can give one more try?
    I was far away..... you just walked away.... and I just watched you..... what could I say.....

    Probably a bit of a long shot, but does anyone know the “other” band that was playing in the background? Maybe if you knew the time of day this was filmed we could work it out!

      Not a long shot! It was Mogwai (who have a reputation of being outrageously loud so it’s kinda funny) 😂
