concert

Concert review of Rodriguez in Manchester, UK The Manchester Deaf Institute is a perfect contradiction. An elderly building, once a refuge for the hard of hearing and the dumb of a century ago, it has been refurbished with sublime louche taste, and is now a rock venue, Going deaf seems to resonate from within these walls, now papered with eccentric birds and enhanced with a tiny theater-like venue on the top floor, painted red and finished off with much crimson velvet. It suggests a bordello of sorts. People now willingly come here to be deafened, not cured of that complaint.
