Looking for runtimes for today’s Manchester DPercussion?

You can download a handy A4 PDF print-out of all the acts and stage times via the BBC’s website:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/manchester/pdf/dperclineup.pdf

NB: Remember all times are subject to change
On the A4 printout not all the acts have specific times by their names, so I guess they could be performing any time within the 30 minute timeslot… best to get there early if it’s a band you really want to see
