Manic Street Preachers Announce Homecoming Gig In Wales

November 12, 2010
Manic Street Preachers Announce Homecoming Gig In WalesManic Street Preachers are set to play a homecoming gig in Wales next month.

The band will perform at Blackwood Miners Institute on December 2 for BBC Radio 2’s In Concert series.

The gig will see the band play songs from new album ‘Postcards From a Young Man’ as well as classic tracks.

"It has been nearly 25 years since we have played in our home town of Blackwood,” bassist Nicky Wire said.

“We are thrilled and excited to be returning to a venue where we have spent many hours honing our snooker skills but this was before it became a live venue.”

Tickets will be allocated via a ballot, and fans can register now at bbc.co.uk/radio2. Registration closes at 5.20pm on November 18.

The gig will be broadcast live on BBC Radio 2 between 8pm-10pm on December 2.
