“June 2015. June 2019 and now June 2023. This time, to celebrate the 15th anniversary of its release we’ll be playing St. Jude (in full) plus (of course) the hits. I can’t think of any better way to celebrate than to make the pilgrimage to Heaton Park with like-minded souls and lose ourselves like it’s 2008. And, because we’re good like that, we’ve remastered the original album…
