Down With Boring has escaped the studio, pinched a couple of wristbands and planted itself slap-bang in the middle of Live at Leeds: In The Park for another one-off, on-stage spectacular. Yep – we rocked up to Temple Newsam at the tail-end of May, flanked by the lingering aroma of churros and factor-50, determined to prove that Jake and Jamie can, in fact, operate heavy machinery (read: microphones) in broad daylight.
To kick things off, we corralled three of the day’s finest rabble-rousers – Sunday (1994), Do Nothing and Brògeal – for an hour of controlled mayhem that somehow took place in an actual pub on an actual festival site. It gets louder, sillier and 100% more likely to derail into chaos, basically.
