    Wow, that's different, looks really fun! I assume the audience were on the opposite platform? If I'd known about it I'd have come along, I can get there easily enough. Congrats on a good show, sounds sweet on the video!

    Luckily the $20,000 mixing desk offered multitrack recording and the whole gig was captured with a Canon 60D so there should be some high quality footage up soon :)

    It was a charity fundraiser for the East Lancahshire Railway...

    was raising funds in order to make a new platform roof :)

    It was on the platform because none of the building are large enough for a band!
