daz Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Anyone going to see the Buzzcocks at Manchester on the 25 May ? I'll be there. anyone else on Basschat going ? [quote]Playing two very special shows featuring their stuff 'n' things and things 'n' stuff from right now to back then, Buzzcocks will arrive at O2 Apollo Manchester on 25th May before rolling into the big smoke on the 26th for a night at O2 Academy Brixton, London. In a three-part evening of pure Buzzcocks entertainment, they'll kick off with new and contemporary material featuring the current line-up of Pete Shelley (vocals / guitar), Steve Diggle (vocals / guitar), Chris Remington (bass guitar) and Danny Farrant (drums). Part two sees Pete and Steve perform the United Artists 'classic years' tunes featuring the classic line-up of Shelley / Diggle and Steve Garvey (bass guitar) and John Maher (drums) before the evening's proceedings will be brought to a clamouring close in part three by Pete, Steve, and John being joined on stage for the first time in over 33 years by original co-founder and front man, Howard Devoto!

Lozz196 Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Nice on Daz, the Manchester one is a bit far, but Brixton simply has to be done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daz Posted March 23, 2012 Author Share Posted March 23, 2012 (edited) Yeah Garvey puts out some mean bass lines. A lot of people have no idea how cool they can be. Check em out I says. Here are the UK gigs. I think only Manchester and Brixton are the ones where they are doing the Back to Front thing with Original lineup plus Howard Devoto. 11 May :Dublin 25 May :Manchester 26 May :Brixton 01 June :Poole 02 June :Bath 14 Sep :Edinburgh 15 Sep :Durham Then to Holland 16 Sep :Tilburg Edited March 23, 2012 by daz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
