Summer Music Festival, 11-12 August 2012
After a highly successful career as two of the original members of one of the biggest Scottish bands, Simple Minds, ex-members Derek Forbes and Brian McGee formed the partnership they shared in the 1980s, this time under the name Ex-Simple Minds (XSM). Joined by Owen Paul (yes that one!!) the show is nostalgic trip back to the seminal days of one of the Worlds greatest bands ... Simple Minds, with the band playing to packed venues across the UK and in Europe, performing the classic hit songs including (Don’t you) Forget about me, Alive and Kicking, Glittering Prize and Love Song etc., etc.
An action-packed explosion of a show, Limehouse Lizzy keep the spirit of Celtic rock band Thin Lizzy alive, well and dominating stages worldwide.
The band’s European tour celebrates the legacy of the hard-living, hard-rocking, yet at times surprisingly tender artist that was Phil Lynott. Expect all the classic tracks such as ‘The Boys are Back in Town’, ’Sarah’ and many others we’ve come to expect from one of the most highly rated acts on the circuit today.
