they're playing Glasgow on my 21st birthday.
oh hell yes.

They're playing Sheffield the day after my 21st!
bonza!

my email box is telling me £35 per ticket can any one conferm this?

Madness tickets are always pretty steep. I've never seen them myself but I'm going to have to one day.

i thought madness tried to keep the prices low, to their records and their shows?!

I'm sure tickets were like £50 or something when they played in the IOM, I missed it though as I was partying for my mates 18th...

I don't think £35 is really that bad... so I shall be at the Leeds date... woo, anyone seen them before? What are they like live?

I think thats Spunge isnt it?

£33.50 at Sheffield, so add on costs and you're talking >£35.
Still yet to decide - I'll have to see them at some point.
If I don't go this time, Bad Manners are playing a few days later
Bud Madness live album is one of my faves!

nah spunge keep their records reassuringly expensive so only people who listen to proper ska buy them

Well Johnny Quest thinks they're playin Birmingham on my 21st so I might go anyway. This seems to be some sort of eerie Ska Mutiny 21st Birthdays Madness Tour though...

Madness should call this the everyone's 21st birthday tour.
