The Mission, O2 Academy Leicester, Leicester - 27th May 2017

This was a great venue, with good viability for the vertically challenged like myself. I saw the whole show with no issues at all. The Mission family are a courteous crowd and the level of respect for all was keenly felt. I was blown away by the quality of the sound produced during the gig and Wayne has if possible grown as a performer.
I was expecting the gig to be great but it was far better than that. It was amazing and is up there, in my top 5 gigs ever and I've been to a few over the last 30 years too!

The Mission, O2 Academy Liverpool, Liverpool - 19th May 2017

I have followed The Mission since 1986, they were an aspiration then and a continuing inspiration today. I put The Mission in the same categories as 'the chosen few' of 'classic' British rock bands that have endured creatively, as well as conquer the territories of the world where their searing sonic beauty is experienced. For those who consider The Mission as a pigeon holed genre, WAKE UP, listen to the crafted songs, both lyrically and musically. Their latest album is testament to the many years of constant evolution, everything that captivates about their music is framed within this beautiful produced album. All great artists offer a mirror to their audience, and Wayne's lyrics and vocal honesty certainly hit an introspective nerve with me at 50. I've not followed The Mission in an 'obsessive' way, as with my following The Beatles, it's the creativity that I find so intriguing. I'm glad for so many years I've 'kept the faith' because The Mission are tighter and more dynamic than I have ever experienced them before....and they look as if they are loving it. To use the Mission's strap line 'Keep the faith!' Paul Skellett

The Mission, O2 Academy Bournemouth, Bournemouth - 17th May 2017

The Mission are on top form now and are easily one of my favourite live bands. Always playing crowd favourites as well as new songs. The O2 Academy at Bournemouth suited the gig very well, hope to see them play there in the future.
