Deacon Blue were back in Nottingham on Sunday night but stepping up from the Royal Concert Hall to take the stage at the Motorpoint Arena to deliver a night of songs from their latest album The Great Western Road which were intermingled with all of their classics that went down a storm.
Fresh from their performance at Leicester's Radio 2 In The Park, Deacon Blue were at the Royal Concert Hall on Thursday when they delivered a night of hits old and new during two sets which lasted more than two hours.
It may have been freezing outside but inside the Royal Concert Hall, Scottish band Deacon Blue kept the temperatures soaring as they finally got to perform their Cities Of Love tour. With not a seat to be had they delivered a set list that showcased a wide range of their hits that spanned their 36 years as a band.
