Had a great trip to @explorebuxton.bsky.social to watch Legend perform the music of #BobMarley & the Wailers. They got the sound spot on at Buxton Opera House - great show. As the drummer in a busy Stranglers covers band it was nice to sit back and watch someone else do all the work for a change.

Great! glad you had a good one at that show, it looked great :)
