Hell. Yes.
Steve Harris’ crew are hitting the road again!
Excellent news, everyone: Iron Maiden legend Steve Harris‘ other killer band, British Lion, are set to go on a huge 27-date European trek in November and December. While speaking about the tour, Steve has also revealed plans for a British Lion live album. You can read his full statement below:
“It’s been great fun taking British Lion out on the road over the past three years and I’m delighted we have the opportunity to play some more shows in 2016. This club tour will be our most extensive European one yet. Due to the routing, we’re not able to get to Scandanavia this time round but will definitely see our fans there next time. On this tour we’ll be making our first visits to Slovakia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Southern and Northern Ireland, as well as a number of different cities in countries we’ve visited on previous tours. We’ve got a really strong show lined up including plenty of songs not on the British Lion album. The whole band is really excited and can’t wait to get out on the road again. We’ll be looking to record some more shows on this tour to add to the recordings we already have for an upcoming live album.”
Tickets go on sale on Monday Sept 5th ( 2pm BST/3pm CET) and will be available here.
