Bought this in town this earlier:
As you do... checked the back pages ('Stranglers'), but only found TW studios in brief. p96. Looks like a good read for a l-o-n-g bus journey or something.

Just got the following email...

The Specials have announced they will be adding another show to their SOLD OUT 30th Anniversary Tour. The outdoor show is in Leeds Millennium Square on Bank Holiday Sunday 24th May 09. Don't miss out on what promises to be one of the great events of the summer!

Tickets go on sale 9am Thursday 26th February and will be available here:
http://www.seetickets.com/?c=382031&filler2=382031



Sounds like a good night. :smt004
I'd try and avoid the shysters at Seetickets if possible, but you probably won't have much choice if you want to snap these tickets up while you can.
