After 30 years in the rock and roll business, The Alarm continues as an ever-unfolding drama commanding worldwide attention starting with those early days in Rhyl - and still fronted by lead singer, guitarist, everyman and original genius Mike Peters. To many, still the greatest live band ever to grace the stage of dingy clubs to football arenas; lyricism that inspired hope, spirituality, camaraderie and lifelong friendship amongst fans; and, just as important, a band that rocks like a bastard. Fifteen hit singles including 68 Guns, Spirit of 76, Rain In The Summertime, Strength and The Stand; five million albums sold; pioneering musicality and stage-sharing duties with Dylan, U2 and Neil Young. It all adds up, don't it? No wonder The Alarm is a legend. Mike Peters is a legend. And this preview has gone on too long ... you KNOW where you should be on this night.

Please note you must be 14 or over to gain admittance - read our ID policy.

WOW. Early eighties since I saw this band but WOW. Marching on was worth the entrance fee alone. My knees ache, I have lost my voice and my ears are ringing. Fantastic. Thank you Mike Peters and The Duchess. Great venue which reminds me so much of the late 70's new wave scene.

Please keep these bands coming.
