So far I've done #JoyDivision at The Factory I, #TheStoneRoses at Spike Island & #Oasis at Maine Road...

Which band would you like to see added to this collection next and which venue are they playing?

#OnThisDay in 1990 #TheStoneRoses beautifully reached their peak at #SpikeIsland and laid the blueprint for future bands to "𝘥𝘰 𝘪𝘵 𝘯𝘰𝘸" 🕘

Here are my artwork tributes to that glorious day! 🍋
