Wombats prepare for homecoming Arena gig
Apr 22 2008 by Alan Weston, Liverpool Daily Post
THE Wombats are to play their biggest headline show to date at the Echo Arena, Liverpool.
They will be one of the first indie bands to play the 10,0000-capacity venue, which will also host more established acts like Duran Duran and Elton John.
The November 22 gig follows a sold-out national tour, including dates at the Royal Albert Hall, the Carling Weekender, Glastonbury, T In The Park and Isle of Wight.
Singer Matthew Murphy, also known as Murph, said: “It’s going to be great. We got a taste for the Arena when we played at the Capital of Culture launch there.
“To play our own show will be amazing.”
TICKETS for the Echo Arena, Liverpool show will go on sale at 9am on Friday at www.gigsandtours.com / 0871 2200 260/ 0844 8000 400 / 0151 256 5555.
