The reformed classic jukebox band continue their musical journey, announcing extensive tour dates for November and December 2025. Tickets for all dates go on sale at 10am on Friday 28 th March, available here. Selling out tours and underlining their undying popularity, whilst creating a platform for a rumoured new album to add to their set, Inspiral Carpets live show is dotted with inventive big songs built around their signature Farfisa and perfect harmonies that always brings the house down. Their hit singles underlined their electric, eclectic creativity from the punk rock rushes of Joe to the melancholic kitchen sink dramas turned into huge hits like the glorious ‘This Is How It Feels’. Then there are the soaring choruses of ‘Saturn 5’ or the thrilling pop noise of ‘I Want You’ with the late and great Mark E. Smith lending his classic snark sneer to the song. Far from being one trick ponies, the Inspirals brought a musical sophistication and a poetic language to much loved sixties garage rock and updated it into every decade they have existed in, including the current one. In 2023 that the band had decided to reform again which was greeted with an adulation that surprised Clint Boon. ‘When we made the decision, in the autumn of 2022, to get the Inspirals back on the road, none of us could have imagined the incredible reception we would get, not just in the UK, but in all the other countries we were lucky to visit. It’s heart-warming to know that our music still resonates with people of all ages after all these years.’ The new line up played over 50 sold out shows and key festival slots with one of the high points being Albert Hall in Manchester where Craig’s son, Levon Gill, drummed on ‘Commercial Rain’ during the encore. Now back as a serious full time band, this year sees even bigger shows and the great news that the band’s bassist Martyn Walsh is back in the fold. ‘It’s great to have Martyn back, I’ve missed him: he’s charmingly funny,’ smiles Graham before Clint adds, ‘It’s great that Martyn’s getting back on board. I’m convinced the next part of our story will be monumental’.

Event Information
14+ only. Under 16's must be accompanied by an adult. No refunds will be given for incorrectly booked tickets. Bad Manners is a British two-tone ska band formed in 1976, best known for their energetic performances and the charismatic presence of frontman Buster Bloodvessel (born Douglas Trendle). Emerging alongside other key bands of the two-tone movement such as Madness, The Specials, and The Selecter, Bad Manners combined upbeat ska rhythms with punk-infused irreverence and humor. Their music is characterized by lively brass sections, infectious melodies, and Bloodvessel's distinctive, booming vocals. Hits like "Lip Up Fatty," "Special Brew," and "My Girl Lollipop" brought them mainstream success in the early 1980s. Known for their outrageous antics and tongue-in-cheek attitude, Bad Manners became a staple of the UK ska scene and continue to perform and tour, maintaining their legacy as one of the genre’s most fun-loving and enduring acts.
