Update on the Buggles event!!!

This just in from ZTT/Trevor Horn, following on from this post…

Trevor Horn and ZTT Records is proud to announce the return of The Buggles, live on stage for their first ever full live gig… a mere 30 years after their international #1 hit single Video Killed The Radio Star kick-started a generation of electronic pop.

Trevor will reconvene the original Buggles line-up, including Geoff Downes (Yes, Asia) and Bruce Woolley (Camera Club, Grace Jones), to preform their ground-breaking début album – The Age of Plastic – in full.

Buggles

No tour is planned, no DVD or live CD will be released… The Buggles – along with some very special guest artists – will perform live on stage for one night only on 28 September 2010 at at a special and intimate West London venue.

This unique event is being put together to raise funds for London’s Royal Hospital for Neuro-disability. Active since 1854, the hospital has a simple but very important mission: to add years to life and life to years.

Further details – including surprise guests, support acts, and pre-show exclusives – will be announced soon. But to avoid disappointment, please click here to register your interest in what is set to be one of London’s – and technopop’s – hottest tickets of the coming months…

EXCITED, MUCH!!!!! 😉

Naturally, I have subscribed for info 🙂 One wonders how big the “intimate” venue might be and therefore how many tickets will be up for grabs. Also, the fact it is a charity do might mean higher than normal ticket prices. We will have to wait and see.

Either way, this is going to be a very special night. I wonder how much Trevor was inspired by the Thomas Dolby “Circumnavigating The Flat Earth” gig at the Union Chapel earlier this year, where Trevor and Bruce guested on a performance of Airwaves.

Counting the days!
