THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT. PART 2

It's been a long time since we started our 'Thanks For Your Support' feature, it's also been a while since I last posted about where the chain has taken us.
When I last posted we had arrived in Leeds and the next stop was to be decided by Indo-Jazz-Fusion-ers Samay.
Samay picked their collaborator, and long time friend of 6Music Introducing Troy Faid.
Troy kept things very much in Leeds and took us from folk to skiffle revivalists The X-Ray Cat Trio.
Leeds was beginning to rival Glasgow as the most represented city in Thanks For Your Support and things showed no signs of changing as our next stop was Machine Guns And Leather Jackets.
Staying in Yorkshire MGALJ played it forward to Secret Circuits.
Leeds then cemented itself as the busiest city in the feature when Secret Circuits picked Electro-Folksters (that's another new genre on me) Black Diamond Bay.
We finally left Leeds and headed for London with the aptly named Synthia.
Things now start to get very epic indeed as Synthia picked post-rockers Three Colours.
Staying on the same tip that Synthia started, our next port of call was Orders Of The British Empire.
Possibly the hub of the DIY post rock, post everything scene were our next pick Alright The Captain. Thanks to their buttonpusher nights they've played with practically every other band on the scene. No surprise then that their pick stayed on genre with Peterborough's Double Handsome Dragons.
Double Handsome Dragons took us to our last port of call, Dublin to be precise, and another epic sounding track. This time from Friend?
Who will Friend? pick as the next band in the chain? Will we be in Ireland for ages? Will we ever stop playing post rock? I genuinely don't know.
