35 great memories of Simple Minds playing Alnwick in 2014

It’s open air gig season and this weekend the fun continues in London and Scotland, with Adele performing in Hyde Park tonight and tomorrow and Calvin Harris entertaining crowds in Glasgow .

Closer to home, in 2014 Simple Minds performed in the Pastures on Saturday, August 16, supported by Toploader and Ella Janes.

The concert came two years after the Jessie J gig, which was hit by heavy rain and left the Pastures in such a state that it was left fallow in 2015.

Take a look at pictures from the previous Pastures concerts: Jessie J in 2012, Part 1 and Part 2; Status Quo and 10cc in 2011, Gallery 1 and Gallery 2; Jools Holland and Alison Moyet in 2010; Music of Queen concert in 2009, Part 1 and Part 2; Jools Holland's second Alnwick gig in 2008; the brilliant Magic of the 80s concert in 2007; and Jools Holland’s first visit to Alnwick in 2006, the first in the series.
