Last Thursday (August 18), The Gaslight Anthem made their triumphant return to UK shores – and they kicked things off in epic fashion, with their biggest-ever headline date in the country at London’s OVO Arena Wembley.
Before taking on venues in Manchester, Edinburgh, Birmingham, Dublin and Belfast on the rest of their comeback trip, the New Jersey gang brought their “Pearl Jam lights” – as frontman Brian Fallon told us last week – and one hell of a setlist (including a special guest appearance from Blood Red Shoes’ Laura-Mary Carter for Halloween and Blue Jeans & White T-Shirts). It was all, of course, absolutely brilliant.
