Thin Lizzy (
live review & photos) start their UK tour June 24th and then join ACDC for three Massive gigs!
“We can’t wait to get over to the UK and play some solo shows in June. They will be the perfect warm up for our slots with AC/DC – one of the great bands of all time. We are putting together a set packed full of Thin Lizzy classics.” says John Sykes
March 2009 saw the release of a brand new Thin Lizzy live album – recorded on the band’s 1977 Bad Reputation tour – “Still Dangerous” shows the band at their very best. The album was produced by Scott Gorham and the legendary Glyn Johns (Led Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones. The Who). “Still Dangerous” is available now through Thin Lizzy Productions / Proper Distribution.
Thin Lizzy is one of rock music’s most recognizable names. The fiery Dublin band exploded onto the scene with a fresh sound, look and attitude. Lead by the incomparable Phil Lynott, the band reached many peaks and influenced generations of musicians with classic tracks such as “Jailbreak”, “The Boys Are Back In Town”, “Still In Love With You”, “Cold Sweat”, “Emerald” and “Don’t Believe A Word”. Most rock historians would agree the pinnacle of their commercial success was in 1983, followed by the bands’ premature demise, as they played their last gig in September of 1984. Just two years later, the world was shocked when singer/bassist and founding member Phil Lynott passed away at the age of thirty six.
