ONE of Britain’s best-loved bands, Madness, have announced a tour with dates in Blackpool on November 26 and Manchester on November 30.
One of Britain's most successful pop acts, Madness released hits such as Our House, House Of Fun, One Step Beyond and many, many more.
Following their last album, The Liberty Of Norton Folgate, the Nutty boys have returned to the studio re-energised and bursting with ideas for their next album in 2011.
The tour may see some of these new tracks get their first public airings while the band have also been looking through boxes marked ‘unreleased’ and ‘never seen’ from recent times and beyond.
These jewels from the treasure trove inspired the title for the tour for those of a quizzical bent.
* Madness play Blackpool Empress Ballroom on Friday, November 26 and the Manchester Apollo on Tuesday, November 30. Tickets £35. To book, visit gigsandtours.com or ticketmaster.com or ring 0844 811 0051 or 0844 826 2826.
