THE EDITED PRESS RELEASES: “These were our first in-person shows back in the U.K. after the pandemic forced us to take a year off, and it felt great.
“The first night, we got on stage to Barry Manilow’s Looks Like We Made It and it already felt triumphant. The Weekender is such an important part of every year, and we marveled at the positive energy in the room. Our friends Robin and Paul, The Horn Steady UK, joined us for a bunch of songs and we hit a nice version of Sweet Part of the City in the middle. Mosh Pit Josh also came on for a rousing Stay Positive. A fantastic night!
“Night 2 of The Weekender 2022 was as electric as the first. We hit the stage to Little Willy by Sweet and started out with Hornets, which some people have said is the sign of an especially rowdy show. We can’t comment on that but the set was great all the way through and the audience was incredible. The Horn Steady UK brought it for Night 2, and it was the weekend playing some of these Open Door Policy songs to a live U.K. audience. Another great one!”
