Misplaced Skyline - Marillion Tribute Bands Of Europe Unite!

Misplaced Skyline Pt I, Gamla Christiana, Oslo, May 2005

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.)

Skyline Drifters Xmas Bash - Artwork by Dazz Newitt, with kind permission from Jon Collins

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.
