Manchester versus Cancer

John Williams - Sunday 24.02.08, 14:21pm

Andy Rourke (Smiths), Peter Hook (New Order) and Badly Drawn Boy joined forces for the finale of last nights Manchester versus Cancer gig. Finally putting an end to rumours of on stage collaborations with Ian Brown and Liam Gallagher.

The supergroup played The Smiths, Please, Please, Please let me get what I want, Joy Divisions Love will tear us apart, Instant Karma and Let the sunshine in from the musical Hair.

 The Farm dedicated their biggest hit All Together Now to Factory Records mogul Tony Wilson, who died last year from cancer.

Other highlights were Happy Mondays, The View, The Fratellis and The Enemy.

For anyone desperate enough here is a clip from The Fratellis, Chelsea Dagger. Its not great quality.
