A unique night for a unique young guy at the Picturedrome on 30th June 2012

So many good things to say about the 2nd gig featuring Age of Paranoia – and this year for the first time HTT – a band of 16 year olds and younger of Huw’s friends who shared the plaudits a the Picturedrome on Saturday 30th June 2012.  Lots of smiles and laughs, great music, lots of commitment and effort from lots of people.  A true community event featuring people from the age of 7 to over 70.  That made it a unique night, totally fitting to remember a unique young guy called Huw Thatcher who we all thought about last night ♥ ♥ ♥.
