Kasim Sulton's solo gig at Martyrs - 20th October
02.15 - Ten days ago Kasim Sulton played a solo gig at Martyrs' in Chicago, IL. This was Kasim's first solo gig of 2012(!) and his first gig at this venue. (You could tell that it was his first gig there as the venue had not put out enough seats!)
At the gig Kasim sang more songs than normal in his 75 minute set (and therefore spoke less) and included a brand new song called Stand Up which received a standing ovation.
The set list, a review and photos will be added soon but meanwhile Southside On The Town has a review of the gig.
Appropiately Kasim sang The Martyr at Martyrs'! Below is a video of this song. Kasim said that he did not think Utopia had ever sung the song live on stage so this was another first!

It was partly due to being very busy at work but mainly due to moving house.
