The artwork

Reproduced by Elliot Eastwick from an original drawing he made on a wall for an exhibition on the hacienda and factory earlier this year in Manchester.
Elliot was the last person to play a record at The Hacienda.
Elliot claims he drew it from memory – so apologisies if people/events have been missed (sometimes the after effects never wear off).
