Waaaaay back in the last millennium I was lucky enough to be in the front row at Pantera's Newcastle show at City Hall. It was an awesome night, opened up and were immense.

The mighty Pantera came on with so much energy and ripped up the stage, with a stage diver taking a plunge into the crowd early on. I will never forget watching throwing down the microphone during Walk as the power cut out.
There was a lot of confusion as the house lights came up.
Sadly that was the end of that gig.

It's been eagerly anticipated for the last 30 years but next week I finally get to see again.

Leeds here we come. 🤘🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥🔥

Are you going or were you there at the City Hall gig?

Lindisfarne - The Band bassist Ian Thompson has announced he is stepping away from the legendary North East band after 30 years.

In a statement on The Alan Hull Songbook page, Ian said the following:

"After 30 years as a member of Lindisfarne and several other related outfits, Including The Alan Hull Songbook, I have decided to call it a day and leave the band. I have played my last Lindisfarne gig. It’s been an absolute pleasure and a privilege to have been a part of something so important to so many people for so many years. There can be no disputing Lindisfarne’s place at the heart of our local culture and heritage. While there have been many ups and downs along the way - mostly ups - I will miss the cameraderie, the laughs and the music and most of all the many, many fans I have met and got to know along the way. Once the dust has settled and loose ends tied off, I’ll be spending some quality time with my family (for a change) and working on my music and photography projects. I wish the band all the best for the future. May they live long and prosper.

Ian Thomson."
