Spandau Ballet reform and play Ireland
The 02 and Odyssey are both in line for a visit.
Spandau Ballet are reforming for what’s rumoured to be a £12 million tour, which includes visits to the Dublin O2 (October 13) and Odyssey, Belfast (14).
Tickets for the former go on sale on Thursday April 2 priced from €49.20.
The comeback was announced today aboard the HMS Belfast in London.
New Romantic standard-bearers, Spandau notched up massive record sales before breaking up somewhat acrimoniously in 1990. The rancour continued when three of the band took Gary Kemp to court over alleged unpaid royalties – a case they lost.
"The boys are back in town and we can't wait,” says singer Tony Hadley stressing that all is now well between them. “It's going to be brilliant, we're very excited. But it will be very different to how we used to be. Obviously there'll be all the hits, the nostalgia, but there will also be a new take on what Spandau Ballet are about."
