Fish Announces 30th Anniversary Celebrations On Upcoming UK Tour
Written by Johnson Stephen on February 27, 2020
Fish is about to embark on a series of career spanning concerts as part of his upcoming ‘Weltschmerz’ Tour, which will see him play 13 dates across the UK in March 2020.
The Tour will celebrate and mark key moments in the ex-Marillion frontman’s career in music, featuring songs from the iconic band’s first studio album, ‘Script For A Jester’s Tear’ (which has been remastered and will be re-released in April 2020) while also honouring the 30th anniversary of his critically acclaimed solo album ‘Vigil In A Wilderness Of Mirrors’, which will be performed in full.
Fish will also be playing brand new music from his forthcoming and final album ‘Weltschmerz’, due for release Summer 2020.
Regarding the tour Fish says, “There’s a powerful alignment of the planets around this Tour, as I’m releasing my final studio album ‘Weltschmerz’ in July, which is 30 years on from my first solo album, ‘Vigil in a Wilderness of Mirrors’. ‘Vigil’ is scheduled to be released as a remastered project together with ‘Internal Exile’, my second solo album, in October 2020.
“As well as those auspicious releases there is a new remaster of ‘Script For A Jester’s Tear’, which was my first ever album with Marillion, due out in April 2020. Taking all of the above into consideration, the set list for the UK tour contains a full performance of the ‘Vigil’ album, five tracks from the new ‘Weltschmerz’ album including the epic ‘Rose of Damascus’ which clocks in at 16 minutes, and a couple of tracks from ‘Script’ as a nod back to my formative past.”
