Tramlines is an urban music festival across 50 venues and 3 outdoor stages in Sheffield City Centre.
And it is free...Cheeky Bonus.
What an awesome weekend!
On Friday night old school dutch prog rock (nutters) - FOCUS- played at The Leadmill supported by The Arch Nazards and another very friendly band whom I forget the name of.
Never really been in to prog rock but it was definitely worth seeing ...

This (LOL) video is Focus back in their glory years, about a minute in the yodelling starts...
Everybody should learn from his facial expressions.
Saturday was utter chaos in town...no-one could even move...think it was the excitement that not just Craig David and Dane Bowers were playing the main stage but Tinchy Strider as well...Oh My. Crikey Me.
Unfortunately... we could not penetrate the crowds to gain access to that stage...instead there was a mazin gig on at Corporation - a band called Future of the Left. Upon arrival at said venue we were not allowed in - gutted. But still I heard the gig was wonderful.
On Sunday we had a chill out in Bungalows & Bears with a few pals and a G&T - was lovely.
Then it was time for the Main Stage, it was slightly less busy today so we got to see Lords of Flatbush, Shake Aletti, Echo and the Bunnymen...AND Mystery Jets!
