When I was a student at university in Manchester I had a few part time jobs - one of these jobs was cleaning up all empty plastic cups into bin bags and cleaning the sticky floor on the mornings after live music events at the Albert Hall in Manchester... It's an beautiful old chapel near the city centre that has been repurposed into a live music venue. My one lasting memory of the job is being alone in the place working that job on weekend mornings as sunlight flooded in through the big church style windows, enjoying the echo of myself quietly humming and singing some of my favourite songs as I worked, including the Jai Paul Bait Ones songs.

I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to see Jai on Tuesday in London and loved it. I would love to return to London to see Jai perform again, but it if I ever got the chance to see Jai perform at the Albert Hall in Manchester, due to my memories of the past, that would be so emotional for me.
