Where? Manchester Apollo
When? Friday and Saturday
Why? Manchester’s favourite son is hitting his hometown to celebrate his 50th birthday. Fans are hoping the quiff-loving vegetarian plays tracks from new album “Years of Refusal” alongside old classics such as “Suedehead”, “Every Day is Like Sunday” and ‘First of the Gang’ with a few Smiths numbers thrown in for good measure. The shows sold out within minutes of going on sale proving Moz has still got what it takes. Insiders predict this tour could be his last.
