Strange, solo and tough

For my second night of Megaphono, I went to House of Targ to see some Petra Glynt - I'm a big fan - and Tough Age. Also on the bill, Man Made Hill, who turns out to be a combination of pro-wrestling and a synth-funk B.A. Johnson. Here he is starting stuff off in his homemade mask, fur hat and purple-fringe jacket.

Did I mention the leotard and fur kneepads?

Petra Glynt always puts on a super show, and she was in excellent form for this set.

Tough Age wrapped things up - they played as a trio, just Jarrett, Ryan and Penny. They donated their merch proceedings from the show to Black Lives Matter, and Bandcamp sales went to Trans Lifeline and the National Centre for Transgender Equality. Here's some guitar action with Jarrett, who I recently saw with Protruders at Bar Robo!
