What a great gig, it's the first time I have been to the open air theatre in Scarborough but thought the venue was really good, plus we got the good weather. The Charlatans were amazing playing a mix of old and new from such an extensive back catalogue. Love you gus, Keep on rocking ...believe me you've still got it!!!
