 Part of the Stiffs Greatest Stiffs package tour 3rd October to 5th November.

Quoting a Will Birch post on Facebook today:
From an article I did for Mojo some years back, with quote from Wreckless Eric: 'At Aberystwyth University on October 4 Elvis Costello promptly reorganised his set to include more of his 'oldies’ and adopted a less confrontational approach. Nick Lowe, who closed the show, had his set rounded off by an outbreak of food throwing. “It was all fairly hippie still,” recalls Wreckless Eric, “and the Student’s Union had catered for about 18 vegetarians, plus an economy sized packet of crisps. When Nick did Let’s Eat we threw all the food over the top of the back line into the audience. When the food hit the crowd, there was a kind of silence within a noise, then it all came flying back again. It was the best reaction we got all evening.”
