We wanted this year to be about celebrating 21 years as a band, which we have documented in the box set 21.
However it was always a plan to release a deluxe 2 CD version of Moseley Shoals and support this by playing the album in its entirety.
We have taken the decision to rearrange the tour in to two parts. We will celebrate 21 in Glasgow, Manchester and London.
In February we will go back to Birmingham to where it all began as well as some of the great venues that have played a part in our history as a live band, and play the album live the way it was recorded note for note...
In a way this is a thank you to everyone who has supported the band for all this time. We then plan to take time off to record the new album ready to release it in time for the summer festivals.
Tickets for the re-arranged dates in Bristol, Nottingham, Leeds, Llandudno, Norwich and Birmingham will be valid for the new dates in February 2011 or can be refunded from the point of purchase. All ticket holders will be contacted directly.
The added shows in Newcastle, Cardiff, Southampton & Liverpool will go on sale at 9am on Friday 3rd September.
The tour dates and box office details are as follows:
