Spectrum
On Tuesday 24th February, Spiral 25 supported Spectrum at The Wheatsheaf in Oxford along with One Unique Signal from London.
Spectrum is the band of Pete Kember (aka Sonic Boom), founder member of 1980s/1990s band Spacemen 3. This was one of the first times for many years that Spectrum had performed as a full band and it was quite something to hear Spectrum playing almost an entire set of some of the greatest Spacemen 3 songs including Transparent Radiation, Set Me Free, When Tomorrow Hits and Revolution. Almost like seeing Spacemen 3 themselves. An experience not to be missed.
Not only that but the whole night was brilliantly put together by Ady Foley of Oxford's Vacuous Pop promotions and record label with all 3 bands fitting the bill perfectly. The sound at the gig was controlled in house sound engineer Joal who did a wonderful job for the sound both on stage and off.
