Talk Tonight concert to celebrate memory of two Reds
Liverpool musicians will come together for a concert in memory of passionate Kopites Mick Woodburn and Neil Hughes.
Mick, who was a well-known match-goer, passed away last month while Neil, known to mates as ‘Yozza’, died in November 2016.
Both were ardent Reds, who travelled home and away in support of their side - and now friends want to celebrate their memory.
Talk Tonight will take place at the O2 Academy on Hotham Street in Liverpool city centre on Friday November 2.
The aim of the evening is to improve awareness of mental health issues among young men while also raising vital funds for local charities.
Kirkby-born Louis Berry headlines the event, which will be hosted by The Anfield Wrap’s John Gibbons.
Acts like The Peach Fuzz and The Shipbuilders will also feature, along with sets from Jamie Webster, Timo Tierney and Kieran Molyneux.
While the night celebrates the lives of two Liverpool supporters, it is for fans of all football clubs.
All funds raised will go to Paul’s Place, a specialist free postvention bereavement counselling service, and James’ Place, a non-clinical centre for men experiencing suicidal crisis.
Doors open at 7pm and the event will begin at 7.30pm. You can buy tickets by clicking here.
