Thunder to follow the heatwave
AFTER a week in which everyone has been waiting for the hot spell to break, here is some guaranteed Thunder.
But make the most of tonight's Sheffield City Hall show, for the vintage British rockers are calling it a day soon.
Danny Bowes (vocals), Luke Morley (guitars & vocals), Ben Matthews (guitar & keyboards), Chris Childs (bass) and Harry James (drums) called time about five months ago having enjoyed a good few years since getting back on the road.
But after 20 years of recording and touring, and with each of the five musicians spending more time on activities outside the band, they've decided enough is enough. Danny admits it has been a tough decision.
"Luke and I formed our first band together when we were kids and we've been through it all together," he says.
After a huge Download festival farewell this is the second of seven swansong dates, finishing up in London next Saturday.
