Tears & Memory T-shirt live in Hong Kong

Gerard Starkie and Ray Chan of much acclaimed and under appreciated alt-rockers Witness got together with some local musicians to play a live show in Hong Kong.
Gerard was wearing the Tears & Memory Headphones T-Shirt, though you can't see much of it behind his guitar!
Some great footage of the gig is available on YouTube where you can see performances of Quarantine (the stonewall classic limited edition debut single), as well as Freezing Over Morning, Hijacker, Cause and Effect, Still, Heirloom & Scars (all from their quite brilliant and criminally underselling debut album)

Gerard's latest album is available for free download on myspace . Here's an earlier track as a taster: Gerard Starkie - Wisest Man Underground
