I was pretty thrilled recently to snap up tickets to see The Badloves. I was too young to frequent pubs and clubs when the band was at the height of its fame, so the chance to see them live will fulfill a childhood dream.
But it seems the show is to be no flash-in-the-pan nostalgic trip. I’m sure I’ll hear “Lost,” “Green Limousine,” “Caroline” and all the other biggies from Get On Board and Holy Roadside. But I’m now excited at the prospect of hearing new material, the tracks which will feature on The Badloves long-awaited third album.
The Badloves third album is scheduled for a February 2010 release, some 15 years after the last one! If you just can’t wait that long you can see the band at the following shows.
