RICK WAKEMAN TO TOUR IN DECEMBER

Rick Wakeman is to play eight UK shows at the end of the year.

Under the banner of ‘The Grumpy Old Christmas Shows Tour’. This will mix music from across his career with other songs and funny stories told in the inimitable Wakeman style.

Says the man himself: “It’s a simple choice. Christmas concerts or traipsing round the shops. No contest, really! Seriously, it’s just so lovely to do some Christmas shows. It’s such a great time of year.”

The dates are London Cadogan Hall December 6, Watford Colosseum 7, Birmingham Town Hall 9, Harrogate Royal Hall 10, Buxton Opera House 13, Poole Lighthouse 15, Liverpool Grand Central 18, Manchester Royal Northern College Of Music 19. Tickets are on sale now.
