Absolutely fantastic gig. Hussey still has a killer voice and the band were incredibly tight playing all their best songs. Not enough time to play them all of course, but highly recommended! I'd forgotten how awesome their music is.

About The Mission
Several bands have used this name.
1) The Mission (known as The Mission UK in the United States due to a naming clash with a Philadelphia R&B band) is a gothic rock band formed in 1986 from the splinters of the freshly-dissolved rock band The Sisters of Mercy.
It was started in Leeds by frontman Wayne Hussey, lead/vocals, guitar and Craig Adams, bass (both of the Sisters)and both in the ressurection of the band in 1999 (with Craig Adams, bass leaving permanantly in 2002 to join The Alarm), soon adding Mick Brown, drums (of Red Lorry Yellow Lorry) and Simon Hinkler, guitar (of Artery/Pulp). Aside from Hussey, the line-up has changed several times during the years, and the band has been dusted up from a state of dormancy once or twice. The backbone of the band's catalogue consists of seven main albums (Gods Own Medicine, Children, Carved in Sand, Masque, Neverland, Blue, Aura and God Is a Bullet) with several complementing albums, compilations and other miscellaneous releases also in existence.
The Mission attracted a faithful following band of fans, known a 'Eskimos'. Gigs typically had an energetic mosh pit (prior to the term being coined) sustained by a lot of Eskimos.
Other bandmembers:
Mark Gemini Thwaite, guitar
Andy Cousin, bass
Rik Carter, keyboards
Mark Gemini Thwaite, guitar
Scott Garrett, drums
Rob Holliday, guitar
Richard Vernon, bass
Richard Beesley, drums

In October 2007, Wayne Hussey made it clear that the band will play it's final gigs ever in feruary and march 2008 ending with a blast, playing 4 nights in London's Shepherds Bush Empire. The band is going to play the entire first 4 albums one each night.
2) Mission is also the name of a Japanese pop group produced by Avex. The members are Oki Yayoi, Satou Chizuko, Hashimoto Mami, Miura Eriko, and Orita Miyuki. They only produced four singles between 1998 and 1999, with no album ever released. Oki Yayoi and Orita Miyuki went on to become members of Hipp's.
3) US Hip Hop group Crown City Rockers were previously known as Mission.
