A heartfelt THANK YOU to those of you whose attendance helped make ‘FOR THOSE ABOUT TO ROCK’, our double-headline tour with Livewire DC, a colossus of an event!
We had an absolute blast and want to extend our gratitude to Livewire themselves for not only being amongst the most ego-free, friendly, easiest bunch to work with but also for being awesome entertainment for us, after we finished our set. Yes, we were there out front each night, being blown away with the rest of you!
And there’s more – not only do we still have a two-night special of the same coming up at The Wharf Arts Centre in Tavistock on the 26th & 27th of November, we also have another Lizzy/DC double header at none other than St David’s Hall in Cardiff on Saturday 23rd January 2010. This tour has featured both bands playing the cream of their respective tributes at some of the best venues in the country, with full production, pyrotechnics, cannons, leather, backdrops and, erm…half-naked men! It doesn’t get any better than this!
Also, don't forget, our 'Rhodes To Wulfrun II' reunion gig at the Wulfrun Hall, Wolverhampton is on the 27th Feb 2010. Already, this event is now being touted as the annual precursor to the actual ‘RhodesRock’ festival itself in June, serving as an actual living colour sampler of what to expect out there in Greece. Even bigger in 2010, the bill features guest slots from this year’s Rhodes stars ‘A Foreigners Journey’, ‘Free Spirit’ and ‘ZZ Tops’, as well as last year’s stellar cast 'Letz Zep', 'Are You Exerienced?' and your humble Thin Lizzy servants.

St. Patrick’s hat-trick...due to the unbelievable reception we have had over the years on Merseyside (Pacific Road Arts Centre, the Cavern, 02 Academy et al) we have decided to stage a St Patrick’s Day Celtic triple bill at Liverpool 02 Academy on March 17th 2010.
Opening proceedings and keeping it real & authentic will be Irish trad/ceili rascals 'Beer for Breakfast', we then stagger forwards into stadium rock with 'Rattle and Hum' the awesome U2 tribute (who played at Rock Radio's birthday bash with us). Last orders on the night come from yours truly, with a full measure of Philo's finest Celtic rock. To purchase tickets at the cheaper advance price, please follow the link...
