The Day Pete Ray Biggin met Level 42 at Sheffield City Hall 1991

11 March 2013 – 19:35

We wanted to share this moment of Pete Ray Biggin meeting his heroes when he was 11 years old, and to be invited into the sound check and play gary husbands drum kit while he was watching was a big moment in Pete’s life. And then to go onto join the band nearly 20 years later is just crazy.
Thanks to Mike Lindup for finding the footage after all this time.
