Soft Play – O2 Institute, Birmingham

Soft Play – O2 Institute, Birmingham

Punk duo Soft Play headlined an absolutely crazy headline gig at Birmingham’s O2 Institute as part of their UK tour supporting their latest album Heavy Jelly.

It was impossible to take your eyes off drummer Isaac Holman and guitarist Laurie Vincent all night and the photo of the latter mid air is easily one of my favourite shots of the year.

The gig itself was borderline chaos, with multiple stoppages to help fans either at the front or who were injured somewhere in the middle. Honestly haven’t seen a crowd go as crazy for a long time.  

Joining Soft Play were Panic Shack and Wonk Unit.

A full review of the gig is running on the Birmingham World website here.
