First of all, a belated thank you to everyone for coming to our gig at The Citrus Club on 12th February. We hope you all enjoyed the show! Thanks also to Analog Angel for coming though from Glasgow and playing a fine supporting set, the staff at the club and everyone else who helped us put it all together – it’s a lot of work putting on a show like that and we really do appreciate all the help that people kindly give us.
As before, we have video footage from this show (thank you again, Susanna!) and this time we were also able to get a multitrack of the audio (we tried last time but the power got cut before we could save the session), so we hope to use both of these to get some more footage up on the site and on YouTube when we get a minute.

- I Travel
- Hungry Like The Wolf
- Dancing Girls
- Pale Shelter

Next up is our first ever London show by kind invitation of the fine folk from Extreme Voice. We’re appearing 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.
Details on the gigs page and further information is also available on the official event page at Ultravox.org.uk.
