Vaselines to play first London date for 20 years
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 24 March 2009
Kurt Cobain favourites The Vaselines will play their first London date for 20 years this Friday at The Forum in Kentish Town. The band’s founder members Eugene Kelly and Francis McKee reformed last year to play two shows in Scotland and their first ever US shows, including Sub Pop’s 20th anniversary festival.
The London show precedes a deluxe re-issue of their 1992 Sub Pop release ‘The Way Of The Vaselines’, which brought together the band’s two EPs and their sole album release, ‘Dum Dum’. The remixed and remastered new version will also include an extra disc including never before heard demos and live recordings. It will be released in the UK on 4 May.
