The Holy Moments

There are some gigs you go to that you just know you will still think about many weeks,months even years after.. this is was one of those gigs, The Holy Moments gig at The Swinging Sporran was stunning , i spent 90% of the gig ducking josh's guitar and trying not to be run over by rampaging singer rich, this gig is what i think early Gallows gigs must have been like, go see them if u dare!
