Chas & Dave planning a final tour

By | Published on Monday 12 July 2010

Chas & Dave, who officially split last year, will reunite for a finale tour, probably next spring. As previously reported, the seminal duo announced they were splitting last September after Dave decided he wanted to retire from music following the death of his wife Sue from cancer. Dave’s other half had been very involved in managing the duo’s careers.

Speaking to the Mirror, Chas explained how the final tour came about, telling the tab: “I was sat at Dave’s house having a cup of tea and out of the blue he said he wanted to do a farewell tour. Dave felt he left in unavoidable circumstances and wanted to come back for one final tour”.

The official statement from the duo was even non-committal on whether the tour would actually be a true finale. It read: “After Dave’s much-publicised retirement from the band following the death of his wife Sue last year, the boys recently decided to get back on the road for possibly the last time together next year with a 30+ date tour”.

Dates and venues for the tour are to be confirmed, though it will include a show at the Indigo2 venue under the Dome.
