Due to overwhelming demand from fans, Guns N’ Roses have confirmed a second London date as part of their UK Tour. The band will take to The O2 stage on Friday 1st June 2012 giving fans another chance to catch all their greatest hits. And if that isn’t enough to excite fans, classic rock legends Thin Lizzy will be “Live and Dangerous” as they join Guns N’ Roses on tour from this May. The boys are most definitely back in town as the two rock powerhouses play Nottingham, Liverpool, Newcastle, Glasgow, Birmingham, Manchester and London.

Thin Lizzy is one of rock music’s most recognizable names. And whilst it’s been twenty five years since the passing of singer/bassist and founding member Phil Lynott, the amazing body of work that is Thin Lizzy still retains all of its vibrancy and influence.
A new lineup has formed to take Lizzy’s music to a whole new generation of music fans. Led by alumni Scott Gorham, Brian Downey and Darren Wharton (all of whom played in Thin Lizzy with Phil Lynott) the stellar lineup is completed by guitarist Damon Johnson (Brother Cane, Alice Cooper), Bassist Marco Mendoza (Whitesnake, Ted Nugent) and The Almighty’s Ricky Warwick on vocals and guitar.
The band have already wowed fans and critics alike on a sold out UK tour in January/February 2012. Alongside the new lineup, Universal Music has committed to a series of re-issue, deluxe and special releases of classic Thin Lizzy material. Most recently releasing deluxe reissues of “Fighting” and “Nightlife”.
