Two Of The UK's Leading Tribute Bands In One Action Packed Show.

 

LIVE/WIRE have established themselves as the hardest working AC/DC tribute act in the UK. They are also unique, due to having both the Bon Scott and Brian Johnson eras portrayed by two individual singers, in the same two hour plus performance.

The band continues to develop and enhance their live performance to attain their ultimate goal, which focuses on the professional delivery of the AC/DC show in the bigger venues. The ‘Stick This In Your Fusebox’ 2008 tour sees the presentation of a full AC/DC show with the cannons, the Hells Bell, the walkways, backdrops and drapes. With Andy, Ed and Daz providing the rock hard rhythm section that you can set a watch to, Lorne cutting the rug with the frenetic fret board antics as Angus Young plus Jon and Grant as the legendary Bon Scott and larynx shredding Geordie, Brian Johnson, respectively, LIVE/WIRE hold all the aces.

“Attention to detail” is their watchword. From the AC/DC signature sound, the instruments, the stage attire, right through to recreating the moves and the grooves. ……. it’s all present & correct. If you are going to replicate an AC/DC show, you have to do it right. The band pride themselves on putting on an exact replica of an AC/DC show that gives the fans ultimate value for money and keeps them coming back for more. A LIVE/WIRE show is all about the band and the fans being in it together. The ‘Stick This tour will see the largest production yet for the audience to savour.   Who said bigger isn’t better?!! LIVE/WIRE don’t just want to invite you to an AC/DC show …… they want to put you slap bang in the front row centre of the whole maelstrom!

As any AC/DC fan will tell you – ‘There is only one AC/DC.’ Similarly, there is only one complete AC/DC show – and that is LIVE/WIRE …..

LIMEHOUSE LIZZY

We delighted to welcome one of the best tribute shows in Europe to what will be a brilliant club gig at the Cluny
 

 
Premier tribute act Limehouse Lizzy present a stirring tribute to Philip Lynott and Thin Lizzy and are currently riding the wave of a Thin Lizzy renaissance. 2006 saw them complete their 'Dedication’ tour, a celebration of some of the finest songs in rock history. The tour was a massive success and culminated in the band being featured in a BBC2 documentary.
 
The Limehouse Lizzy concert footage and interviews were screened nationally as part of the Arena Television series in October 2007. Watch the band’s websites www.limehouselizzy.com and www.myspace.com/limehouselizzy, as footage from the programme will be added in the coming months…
 
Due to overwhelming demand, the band are touring again in 2009 complete with their magnificent mirrored backdrop, police lights and full pyrotechnic display.
 
Expect Whisky In The Jar, Parisienne Walkways, The Boys are Back in Town and many more of Phil Lynott's genre-defying hits, alongside some of his cult album tracks and solo material.
