It is always a pleasure when @thisisthekit.bsky.social visit Cambridge. Fab show at @storeysfieldcentre.bsky.social on Sunday night. Could just be me, but I thought they rocked a little harder than usual. Kate Stables channeling her inner Ian Anderson, perhaps?

A black and white photo of Kate Stables and Jamie Whitby-Coles of This Is The Kit, on stage at Storeys Field Centre, Cambridge, UK.

Jamie is playing the drums at the back of the stage. Kate is at the front of the stage, playing a banjo and standing on one leg.

People seeking asylum in the UK are banned from working. It’s unfair, harmful, and makes no sense. Let’s build a system based on dignity and justice. Email a Member of the Lords today >>
