ROCKET FROM THE CRYPT ARE BACK!


Direct from San Diego, California, ROCKET FROM THE CRYPT return to the UK in December 2013 for their first shows in almost a decade. The band have confirmed six gigs in a week of whistle stop, ass-kickin’ rock and roll. Lucky people in the following cities will witness the return of one of the greatest live bands of all time!
 
December
1st  MANCHESTER   Gorilla
2nd  NEWCASTLE     The Cluny – SOLD OUT
3rd  GLASGOW          Classic Grand
4th  LEEDS                 Brudenell Social Club – SOLD OUT
6th  LONDON             Koko

As a special treat for their legion of UK fans, RFTC have produced six different Limited Edition One-Sided 7” Vinyl Singles to commemorate each date of the tour.  Six singles, six cover versions of a band or singer from the city they’re playing in.

Each 7” is limited to 400 copies with only 100 available at each show.
Manchester: Buzzcocks
Newcastle: Venom
Glasgow: Gerry Rafferty
Leeds: Red Lorry Yellow Lorry
London: Status Quo
Dublin: Boomtown Rats
 
Recorded in an afternoon of fun and madness earlier this year, these singles are the most recent additions to over thirty 7”s produced by the band over the course of their career.
 
A career which has seen them blow the roof off Top of The Pops, adorn the covers of magazines and soundtrack the lives of punks and rockers alike, Rocket From The Crypt has cemented their place as the foremost rock and roll band of their generation.

 

You might have some questions for Rocket From The Crypt, well, they’ve helpfully answered these FAQs for you:
 
Q: Will there be other shows?
A: Maybe. We will see how it goes
 
Q: If I have a Rocket tattoo can I get in free?
A: Yes, but only those with the new "reborn again" logo. This new logo consists of a purple phallus relieving itself on 3 rolled tacos with guacamole.

A: Of course, but please bring hand sanitizer and have your camera focused and ready so that others can have an opportunity as well.
 
Q: I have a band that wants to play with you guys. Is this possible?
A: Possibly. If you have 2 Marshall JCM 800 half stacks, a decent bass amp and you don't mind us making pee pee on your equipment and you playing for free yes, perhaps we can work something out.
 
Q: This isn't really a question….but that sounds like a bad deal

A: Yes, Dave Grohl from Nirvana is producing.
 
Q: Any last words?
A: Rock N Roll will never die. It can only live. Thank you and I look forward to seeing you all very soon.
