Because of the logistics involved, we needed a good idea of viability of this event in advance, so we already have forty-plus people for whom we are sorting accommodation; please get in touch with Emma Mills *promptly* if you want to add yourself to that: e-mail Emma You can also contact Emma if you would like to purchase a ticket in advance - we can fit about 150 people in the venue in total, so we're not going to sell out tomorrow but we'll announce it if it's getting tight!
Friday 24th March - Gamla, Oslo
Saturday 25th March - Tribute, Sandnes
In March members of Marillion tribute bands Misplaced Neighbourhood (NOR) and Skyline Drifters (UK) are joining forces for two very special concerts in Norway.
The line-up will comprise two Drifters - Rich on vox and Ade on drums - and three Neighbours: Visitor on Guitar, Jany on Keys and Ludo on Bass. As well as their tribute band efforts, Ade, Visitor and Ludo have also all played with Marillion in Swap the Band (Ade on Between You and Me in 2002 and Visitor and Ludo on Uninvited Guest last year).
Expect a set of classic Marillion tracks from both eras.
(And if you'd like to know how it went when Rich sang with the Neighbours last year, click here.)
Support: SliQ - A Tribute to 80s Rock
Previous to our European adventures, Skyline Drifters last full public outing was, believe it or not, a Xmas Bash for Marillion / Fish fans and other friends, Dec 8th, 2002 at The Rock Cafe, Stourbridge.
Support was from the most excellent Jo McCafferty, fresh from supporting the h band on their recent tour. Jo and Rich went on to be credited by The Guardian as members of Marillion as part of the feature on the Marillion Convention 2003! If the cap fits...
Since then we've played a handful of private gigs for Marillion / Fish fans and their friends.
