Happy Summer Everyone
We know many of you are off enjoying your holidays and as we are all soon to
follow suit, we thought it was a good time to give you a quick update on all the
goings on at The Racket Club.
After being in our studio for 25+ years, we have finally decided to do a
complete refurbishment of the studio and offices - this has been ongoing for a
few weeks now with a few weeks left to go.
The saying 'working in a building site' has never been more true but we are
looking forward to the end results.
Plans for the rest of 2018 include a festival in France this weekend - 'Rock Au
Chateau', the "Riverside Festival' in Switzerland and three gigs in Japan in
September. Followed by a tour of Germany and a couple of dates in Austria,
Hungary and the Czech Republic in November and December.
All tour dates can be found at http://www.marillion.com/tour
In between gigs, we will back in the studio jamming and writing music for our
next album.
With a break for Xmas we then run headlong into rehearsals for our FIVE
Marillion Weekends in 2019 which are all selling incredibly well already - thank
you all for your faith.
We hope to make the shows even more stunning visually than before.
All details can be found at http://www.marillionweekend.com
We have other exciting plans for 2019 that we will be announcing much later this
year/early 2019 so make sure you follow our updates via email or on any of our
social media channels such as Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
