The Vaselines @ Melkweg February 2

If Kurt Cobain had never described Eugene Kelly and Frances Mckee of The Vaselines as his “favourite songwriters in the whole world”, it’s hard to say just how much exposure the Scottish duo would have ever got. It’s a good job he did then. After releasing an album of new material last year, The Vaselines are back on tour and stopping by Amsterdam.
