May News:
A socially-distanced Welcome to all of you - breathed at you through an N95 surgical mask, naturally… The devil is still making work for our idle hands, keeping us busy with the process of rescheduling dates. Many of our venues and promoters remain cautious about cancelling dates in light of a lack of definite official dates and timelines for the medium to long term future.
And of course, it would at this moment be merely a crystal ball gazing exercise to attempt to predict when our first shows back would be. But as seemingly everywhere is gearing up for a gradual, yet rightfully cautious return to work, we likewise are hoping to see shifts in our working structure to accommodate a return in the not too distant?
In the meantime, we cannot thank enough those of of you who have retained your tickets for a reschedule. It helps the bands, the venues and the industry overall, who are not only currently still unemployed but may well be one of the last sectors to return to our profession to resume earning a living, given the current recommendations. Please check out our tour dates ( and re-scheduled shows) here: http://www.limehouselizzy.co.uk/tour_dates.php
Meanwhile, as a little throwback, check out a picture of the plaque we presented to Dave ‘Hard Rock’ Harvey on our social media pages on, interestingly enough, our last gig before the lockdown. Dave is quite possibly the most loyal and longest serving Thin/Limehouse Lizzy fan, having seen both acts right from their very beginnings. He not only is a regular supporter when we’re south of the border, he also made an incredibly generous donation when we had all of our gear stolen this time last year, for which we’ll be eternally grateful. The least we could do was honour him with the plaque to mark his gesture, which will be mounted on the new backdrop.
And finally, hopefully by now you’ll have seen our ‘Car Pool Karaoke’ video post of another uber-Lizzy fan and big Limehouse mate, Julian Sciberras, lip-synching to The Boys Are Back In Town…with some interesting results at around 1m 30 seconds! But it did give us the idea that if any of you want to do similar - without a scratched CD! - and send it on to us, we’d be only too happy to post it on our social media and hopefully make instant viral (pardon the pun) stars out of you? Go on, do it, even if it’s a gang of you - but it HAS to be a Thin Lizzy tune! Check it out! https://www.facebook.com/limehouselizzy/videos/382956415980995/
So, hang in with us, peeps - we’ll be back atcha before you can say “have you had your COVID-jab?”
Stay tuned, stay in touch, stay safe - LIMEHOUSE
