Celebrating Burn in the UK
Glenn Hughes will continue his 50th anniversary of Burn tour with 11 dates in the UK in October. The tour starts on October 10 in Holmfirth and wraps up on the 29th at the Manchester Academy. Soren Andersen on guitar, Ash Sheehan on drums, and Bob Fridzema on keyboards will round up the band. Special guest on all UK shows is Canadian band The Damn Truth.
Tickets go on sale February 23, 2023, with presales starting on the 21st.
Check our calendar for full details.
In case you were wondering like me, Ash – the drummer – is NOT related to Billy Sheehan (the David Lee Roth, Mr Big and Sons of Apollo bassist extraordinaire), he’s a – quite audibly so – fellow-Brummie:

Maybe I should drop by, say hi to Ken and tell him “You know, by rights, I should be a co-owner of this place, you’ve made so much money off me in the last five decades!”

February 21st, 2023 at 21:18I can’t remember, Glenn did this tour already right….before joining The Dead Daisies? What was that tour called? Or was that just him going out playing Deep purple songs?
February 22nd, 2023 at 13:04@1: That tour just him playing “classic Deep Purple”. I guess this will be much of the same but with more focus on Burn.
February 22nd, 2023 at 13:11Yup, he’ll finally do the vocal parts to “A” 200 (it will be a lice performance so to say) and Coronarias Redig!
Seriously, Glenn doing Mk III material in concentrated fashion (I saw a gig from the previous tour) is just great – as close as you can get these days to the real thing. You will not be disappointed if the Mk III line-up ever meant anything to you.
