Reading Time: 2 minutesLeeds has so many little pockets of community action and events, for those in the know… One of these is the annual Woodhouse Ridge Festival, taking place early July each year. This is a wonderful example of grassroots community in action. Woodhouse Ridge is an area of …
Reading Time: 3 minutesSometimes great things come in small packages. I’ve seen Monster Magnet a couple of times before in bigger venues, but they have recently played the Brudenell Social Club. How on earth they made the finances of a small club tour like this work, I neither …
