Have you seen Steve Gunn before?

I'm a massive fan. This'll be the fourth time for me in November, having seen him in Cologne, Hasselt and Lisbon.

Very good live. Spoke to him a few times too, he comes across really well. He'll think i'm stalking him.

No, I'd never heard of him until I got the Liverpool Music events e-mail. Listened to a couple of tracks on Spotify and thought why not ?, I've only played one Roddy Woomble song and he's on friday, I picked that on reputation.
