After a sudden, prolonged downpour that can only be described as biblical, and on a night that saw the Georgian national football team spitting their dummies out after being told to go back out and finish a game of football that had been suspended due to the rain (bet you …

In the history of why-on-earth-book-a-popular-artist-into-such-a-small-venue, booking Amanda Shires into King Tuts would score pretty damn high on the why-o-meter.
