There’s some vintage names coming up at the Robin.
Original British invaders The Pretty Things return to the Robin on Friday 16th October. Wilder than the Stones and louder than the Who, the band’s blues-tinged rock blazed trails, created the first rock opera in SF Sorrow and in the words of Jack White are still “The most exciting rock ‘n’ roll band of the last fifty years who are still on the road today”.
Tickets £17.50
