The Streets komen terug

In april volgend jaar trekt Mike Skinner terug de boer op met The Streets.

Bedoeling is dat de “The Darker The Shadow The Brighter The Light”-tour, genoemd naar een recent nummer van Skinner slechts eenmalig is. Voorlopig is er trouwens enkel maar sprake van concerten in het Verenigd Koninkrijk.

De laatste tournee van de band dateert ui 2011. Nu wordt het een viering van de greatest hits.

Skinner zei hierover het volgende: “I’ve missed tour buses very much. Which is the least of the reasons why I have decided to tour The Streets again. The other thing I’ve missed is trying to think up what I’m going to say in the gap between the songs. When you DJ they tell you that you don’t need a tour bus and you don’t need to think up things to say between the songs. But seriously, it’s been long enough. With my Tonga parties, the new rap and grime MC’s I have been producing and the DJing, I have been living with music since making The Streets for nearly as long as I made The Streets. I’m not the guy smoking in the car anymore though, I have become the guy in the club, so I hope I will be excused for putting on after parties in nightclubs after every show”.
