Dial:Revenge in Barcelona

According to unconfirmed initial reports, Mogwai took advantage of touring with Gruff Rhys to return Rock Action's 'Dial : Revenge' to the setlist at last night's Barcelona show. This is the first time the song has been played live since 2006 (unless it was played in Zaragoza on Thursday - anyone seen a setlist for that one?)

Mogwai have further shows with Gruff Rhys in Germany over the next few days, so hopefully it'll get played again.

Update - prior to this week, Dial:Revenge has been played live seven times, five times in 2001 and twice in 2006. Last live performance was at the Fuji Rock Festival in Japan, 30th July 2006

Greek Show Postponements

Spicy Entertainment and Mogwai regret to announce that the Greek shows scheduled for Friday, 21st of October 2011 in Athens and Saturday, 22nd of October 2011 in Thessaloniki will not take place, due to the air traffic control strike which makes the transportation of the band and its equipment to Greece impossible in time for the shows.

Rescheduled dates will be announced soon.

We kindly ask ticket buyers to hold onto their purchased tickets as they will be valid for the rescheduled dates.

Thank you for your understanding and support.

ANNOUNCEMENT FOR MOGWAI SHOWS IN GREECE

Taking into deep consideration the difficult financial times that Greece is going through, MOGWAI, have decided to reduce their artist fee for the Greek shows in order for the price of the concert tickets to be reduced as well. As a result of this decision, SPICY ENTERTAINMENT, announces the following new ticket prices: For the Athens show at Fuzz Club on October 21st 2011: 28euro on presale and 35euro walk upFor the Thessaloniki show at Block 33 on October 22nd 2011: 28euro on presale and 33euro walk up.

Buyers who have already purchased tickets for the Greek shows with the previous prices ( Athens: 30 euro // 35euro and Thessaloniki: 33euro) should hold onto these tickets and present them at the club’s box office on showday (i.e. at Fuzz Club for the Athens show and at Block 33 for the Thessaloniki show)in order for them to receive the relevant refund”.

We wish to thank all our Greek fans for their support and look forward to seeing them soon at our shows in Athens and Thessaloniki.
