Heart has a close connection to Led Zeppelin. Rounding out the set were two hard-rocking Led Zeppelin covers, “Immigrant Song” and “Misty Mountain Hop.” “And we’re FREE!” the 66-year-old shouted with a smile as the mostly older crowd laughed right along with her.Įverybody was on their feet, fists pumping and singing along for “Crazy On You”, which led into a pulsing version of “Barracuda.” Saturday’s concert was an impressive display of the group’s talents, showcasing how easily it can switch from a power ballad such as “Alone” to a rock classic such as “Barracuda.”įans who’ve followed Heart for decades appreciated when Ann talked about touring and how they miss their dogs and their kids, but, well, their children are now 40, she laughed. But that all changed when they began “Straight On,” which really got the crowd rocking. We are delighted to continue our long-standing support of Kick It Out, as we share their refreshed vision for a truly inclusive sport.The first half of the show offered some of Heart’s ballads, and the audience approved. The issue of discrimination in football is something that should and will remain in sharp focus for everyone associated with the club. We won’t stop until it stops.”ĭave Messenger, Watford FC’s EDI Lead, added: “Watford FC is a club for everyone, with our EDI activities representing and engaging with the heart and soul of the community which surrounds it. But right now, we’re here to put an end to every form of discrimination. Our biggest hope is that one-day football and other sports will no longer need us. “We all know Kick It Out shouldn’t have to exist. We also want to say thank you to the Sky Creative Agency, as part of our ongoing partnership with Sky, they have helped execute our new brand identity and bring our creative vision to life. This, alongside our updated vision, will help us better reach our target audiences and execute our strategy. Tony Burnett, Kick It Out CEO, said: “Our new visual identity is focused on being bold and energetic, and easier to adopt and utilise across different channels, activations, and other sports. And we will continue to call out discrimination wherever it happens – from your local park, to the Premier League and to your social feed.” We remain committed to supporting people from under-represented and minority communities to make a career in football and thrive.
“We will continue to campaign to make sure football is always welcoming – to everyone. Today, we run education programmes for academy players, parents and fans and we will be developing our education offering even further in the coming months. Sanjay Bhandari, Kick It Out Chair, explained: “Our heritage is tackling racism in football, but our scope for the future is to expand our remit to create more inclusive cultures in other sports and tackle every form of discrimination.
The ‘IT’ is at the heart of the logo, representing everything Kick It Out stands against, which is all forms of discrimination. The logo is deliberately hand-crafted to bring across attitude and energy, as well as a sense of our grassroots beginnings. But it also references a club badge design, which is an important aspect of our brand as we want supporters to wear the Kick It Out logo with pride and engage other sports in our mission. Kick It Out’s new logo - shown above - is inspired by the shape of a football, the sport we are most associated with.
