2018 UK tour

[thegl0r]

Hopefully they won't be coming to the UK for just this one date...



Tickets are £52 for the full three days. The full line-up for the weekend hasn't been announced yet Or who's playing what day. Prices for day tickets are yet to be announced.

Naoko has previously told us that she has been shopping for fabric for new stage outfits, so I'm expecting to hear soon that they're in the studio again. It's that time of year.

Whee!

They've said that tickets go on sale in January, and that the hall holds 400.
So that tends to look like a scramble ahead.

They've been adding more dates for their 2018 UK tour, playing a mixture of old fave venues and some new ones. There are still gaps to be filled and somewhere I've seen a booking for Edinburgh which probably means they'll also be playing in Glasgow. Now, where to go and see them next year?

Hopefully I've not made any mistakes with the list. In some magazines over here, the dates for SK gig listings have been printed wrong. Or do they know something I don't?

With 27 gigs in 33 days, SK are going to be very busy.
