The Darkness announce intimate 100 Club warm up

To celebrate their imminent trip to Japan and UK tour THE DARKNESS have announced a very special intimate warm up show at the 100 Club in London.

The band will limber up at their first ever appearance at the legendary venue on the 10th October 2011 which promises to be the sweatiest night of the year, no matter what the weather brings. This will be an amazing night for the band and fans alike to take part in the beginning of THE DARKNESS' much needed return to the UK and bring glamour, excitement and proper rawk to Oxford Street.

The original line up made their welcome return to the live scene earlier this year with a triumphant performance at Download Festival in June which saw them air the old favourites as well as unveil several news tracks from their forthcoming album. Several European festivals beckoned and they returned after the summer to finish recording and mixing, a sneak preview is rumoured to be imminent .

Tickets go on sale Friday 30th September at 9am.
