We are very pleased to announce our first ever London show by kind invitation of the fine folk from Extreme Voice at the offical Ultravox pre-show 'Voxgate', which is taking place on Sunday 11th April 2010 at The 100 Club, Oxford Street, London, mere hours before Ultravox themselves take the stage at Hammersmith Apollo.
On the day, we will have the very special honour of supporting The Messengers, who are fondly remembered by Ultravox fans as both the support band and backing musicians for many of Ultravox's tours back in the 80s. Colin and Danny who comprise the band were also prolific collaborators with Midge Ure, Danny notably co-writing Midge's number one hit 'If I Was'. Whilst they sadly never achieved significant chart success in their own right, they nevertheless amassed a strong body of material (check out the Midge Ure produced single 'I Turn Into You' on YouTube). We look forward to sharing the stage with them during this very special one-off.
Although the event is primarily aimed at Ultravox fans who will be travelling from far and wide for what may well be the band's last ever London show, please don't think of it as a private members only event - it's very much open to the public and everyone who wants to come is very welcome!
Note - this is an afternoon gig running from 3.00PM until 7.00PM in order to allow everyone attending to catch the Ultravox show later that night. Tickets are £9.00 in advance and are exclusively available online. There is no booking fee. Any left over tickets will be available on the door at £12.00 but based on the success of previous 'Voxgates' there is every chance of the event selling out before the night, so book now to avoid disappointment!
