The latest leg of 90s indie icons Suede and Manic Street Preachers’ joint tour rolled into Manchester on July 12 for the Sounds of the City show. Having attended this in 2022 to see Pixies deliver a rollocking, machine-gun fire set of hits and deep cuts, I found the venue to be well-suited – open air, yet retaining an element of intimacy for the fans, not too long to queue at the (OK, expensive!) bar. Expectations were high then for this event, what with both acts now being veterans of the live and recorded music arenas.
