My last gig was exactly a year ago, in Trieste, It My last gig was exactly a year ago, in Trieste, Italy. An amazing night with a bit of a story attached - the live album of that gig is called Hindsight and you can hear it, buy it and read the story at music.stevelawson.net ❤️ Let's not fuck up coming out of lockdown, eh?
