In January of 2006, the remains of Joyce Carol Vincent, aged 38, were discovered in her London flat. She died in her apartment in late 2003, surrounded by undelivered Christmas presents.

It wasn’t surprising that the Sun described the gig as “one of the best shows of the year – and it’s only March”.
