Metropolis is proud to present a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to attend and be part of a filmed show by a LEGENDARY ARTIST
The unique atmosphere of the Fritz Lang inspired Metropolis Studios in West London will be made to feel like those revered clubs and university halls of the 60's and 70's where you could almost touch the band – like The Marquee, The Flamingo, and the 100 Club
You will MEET the artists after the show and have an opportunity to be PHOTOGRAPHED WITH THEM, and from the moment you arrive be offered free champagne and treated like a VIP GUEST
You will have access to all the DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHS from the reception and concert
Make no mistake, these are not tame seated concerts (although some seats will be available), they are a faithful recreation of the times when you danced, hung around the cool spots, and moved to some of the greatest UK acts
YOUR NAME will be on the DVD of the show which will be commercially released around the world and EVERY ATTENDEE will receive a COMPLIMENTARY DVD when edited and manufactured
The audience for each show will have the freedom of the Metropolis Studio complex and be welcomed to pre-concert drinks
THERE WILL ONLY BE 140 TICKETS AVAILABLE TO EACH CONCERT
A ONCE IN A LIFETIME OPPORTUNITY

The first 6 concerts are a mixture of the UK's finest Pop/Rock and Progressive Rock Artists
Sat. OCT 9th. THE ZOMBIES
Still at the top of their game after all these years, The Zombies, led by Colin Blunstone and Rod Argent will perform some of their classics and solo works including She's Not There, Time Of The Season, Care Of Cell 44, Tell Her No, Say You Don't Mind, I Don't Believe In Miracles and Hold Your Head Up. A one and only event.
Sat. NOV 27th. RICK WAKEMAN
An opportunity to share a studio with just Rick and grand piano and experience the virtuoso skills of the keyboard player from Yes. Wakeman the raconteur is well known from his appearances on Grumpy Old Men, but at Metropolis Legends the grumpy youndg man will be demonstrating everything from The Six Wives of Henry The Eighth to Journey To The Centre Of The Earth. There will only be one performance.
Fri. DEC 3rd THE MANFREDS
The cameras might just as well be on the audience for The Manfreds performance at Legends – because all will know and appreciate an endless stream of hits like, 5-4-3-2-1, Do Wah Diddy, Sha La La, If You Gotta Go, Pretty Flamingo, Just Like A Woman, Semi-Detached Suburban Mr.Jones, Mighty Quinn, Fox On The Run, Ragamuffin Man. Both original vocalists, Paul Jones and Mike D'Abo are in the line up.
Sat. DEC 4th BARCLAY JAMES HARVEST
23 – yes - 23 albums of the best progressive rock and mellotron magic are testament to the incredible career to date of Barclay James Harvest. They do not often come out to play these days, but ITV/Metropolis Legends have tempted the band to meet and appear in front of just 140 people to cover some of their greatest moments from Other Short Stories, Everyone Is Everybody Else, Time Honoured Ghosts, Octoberon and Gone To Earth.
Sat. Dec 11th GEORGIE FAME & THE BLUE FLAMES
We aim to recreate the legendary Scene Club at this concert recording which is where Georgie Fame played Friday night residencies in the Sixties. Besides the million selling Yeh Yeh and Bonnie & Clyde, we've requested Sunny, Get Away, In The Meantime and Sitting In The Park to go with your mohair suits and button down collars.
Sat. Dec 18th. VAN DER GRAAF GENERATOR
Led by the unique vocal of Peter Hammill VDGG join us as the last concert this year at Metropolis, and will provide an audience of mainly former college and university alumni an opportunity to meet and sit in on a concert with one of the most revered progressive rock bands of the seventies.
Often compared with King Crimson at their finest, respect and indeed reverence for VDGG has never waned.
