Some of you may be interested in this, a free exhibition which previews in the Town Hall Crypt tonight from 5 - 7pm and will be opening Mondays to Saturdays, 9 - 5, until Saturday 27th August.'This exhibition celebrates the music culture of Leeds through a collection of memorabilia, records, programmes, posters, t-shirts, instruments, awards and artworks that tell some of the stories of the Leeds music scene over the last sixty years. It's been put together in true DIY spirit that fans of the Leeds scene will recognise, and aims to make some noise about the great music that is made and played in Leeds. We have been overwhelmed at the generosity of fans, promoters and musicians that have sent their memorabilia from the far flung corners of the globe - there are some real treasures here. Come and have a look and share your memories of great Leeds bands, gigs and venues. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to see this collection of stuff - don't miss it!'
