Manic Street Preachers end UK tour with Hammersmith Apollo shows

Manic Street Preachers ended their UK tour of smaller venues with two Hammersmith Apollo dates, playing new song Firefight, and are unlikely to tour again for two years.

More more more live news, but this time no dates. Manic Street Preachers performed live in London on Monday and Tuesday, wrapping up their UK tour of smaller cities and venues with two dates at the Hammersmith Carling Apollo. The band, who are unlikely to perform live again for another two years, played new song 'Firefight', which features on the limited edition 'God Save The Manics' tour EP, available as a free download from the band's official website, but when crowds called for 1993 track 'Sleepflower', James Dean Bradfield was heard to say: "Tell you what, in two years time come back we'll play that soft metal piece of shit for you."
