Johnny Marr has announced details of a massive UK tour for October. Full dates and ticket details are below.
The Smiths turned solo icon has recently completed a couple of huge outdoor shows with The Who and Noel Gallagher, but will be hitting the road again in October for a string of shows - including a massive homecoming show at Manchester's Albert Hall.
“Getting out on a UK tour is exciting for me,” says Marr. “There’s no substitute for going to a show and playing shows. Playing live is what it’s all about."
He'll also be recording a live album during the tour - his first since The Smiths' legendary Rank in 1988.
Marr's full upcoming UK tour dates are below. Tickets are on sale from 9am on Friday 17 July. For tickets and more information, visit here.
