Two era defining artists @theskidsofficial & THEATRE OF HATE come together this autumn for an explosive UK co-headline tour.

🗓️ Friday 13th November

📍Cheese and Grain

Presented by @padpresents

The Skids formed in 1977 in their hometown of Dunfermline, Scotland by Richard Jobson, Stuart Adamson, Bill Simpson & Tom Kellichan. After releasing an independent single the band was played by John Peel, supported The Clash in concert and then were signed to Virgin Records in 1978. Their first singles were “Sweet Surburbia”, “The Saints are Coming” and “Into the Valley” – the latter reaching the UK Top Ten in early 1979.

In 1980, Kirk Brandon formed THEATRE OF HATE from the ashes of heralded punk band The Pack. Joining Kirk on vocals were notable punk musicians Stan Stammers and Luke Rendall, along with old school friend, Steve Guthrie and Canadian born John “Boy” Lennard, who revolutionised the band’s sound with his haunting sax lines.

🦚@bluetonesofficaluk (slight) return to mark the 30th Anniversary of their classic debut album ‘Expecting To Fly’.🦚

🗓️ Friday 6th November

📍 Cheese and Grain, Frome

Presented by @padpresents

The band will be heading out across the UK in October and November 2026 to cut some rug whilst playing the record in full. You can also expect to hear a number of other hits from their extensive back catalogue which contains no fewer than 3 Top 10 Albums and 13 Top 40 Singles.

The platinum selling debut album charted at Number 1 in the UK Charts, displacing Oasis’ ‘What’s The Story (Morning Glory)’ for a week. ‘Slight Return’, the album’s most successful single also reached Number 2 on the official charts.
