GIG 253: Therapy? / Honeycrack / Joyrider – Brixton Academy, 13th December 1995
This was a memberable gig for a couple of reasons. One due to the gig itself, the other due to the riot taking place outside that kept us locked in the venue and gave us all a police escort to Stockwell tube station as Brixton Station was still in the middle of the riot.
