The Legendary Pink Dots go on 40th anniversary tour in Europe in February 2020
The Anglo-Dutch experimental rock act The Legendary Pink Dots will tour Europe in February 2020 to promote their current studio album “Angel In The Detail”, which was released in the late summer of 2019 via Metropolis Records. The tour also marks the band’s 40th anniversary since forming in 1980 and it concludes with a London show on 29th February.
And that’s not all says Edward Ka-Spel: “We’re cramming this anniversary with a lot of special, often handmade releases. Next up is a DVD-A edition of ’40 Angels – The Archive’, with just 89 being individually made that contain all 4.5 hours of the epic archive which appeared on our Bandcamp page last autumn.”

Why we ask
Advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations we have not put up a paywall, and we refuse to add annoying advertising, so we need to ask for your help. Side-Line’s independent journalism takes time, money and hard work to produce, and we do it to push the artists we like, who are equally fighting to survive.

Strip out the promo nonsense, verify what’s actually real, and decide which stories make the cut and which get tossed into the digital void. Outside the news filter bubble, I’m all in for quality sushi and helping raise funds for Ukraine’s ongoing fight against the modern-day axis of evil.
