Academy 1 (Manchester Academy)
12th October 1991

A bite-sized review of Blur's first visit to the Academy on the back of the success of their first three singles. It mentions that the crowd were hysterical watching Damon pull shapes with his onstage antics and over all they sounded great, generating an amazing atmosphere.
