Ultravox – 30th Anniversary Tour Book
ULTRAVOX fans launch ‘Remembering Eden – 30th Anniversary Tour Book’ a celebratory project to commemorate the return of the ‘80’s synth pop pioneers to the live stage in 2009/10. The project also aims to raise funds for the Mick Karn Appeal.
The official release will coincide with the 30th anniversary of the hit single ‘Vienna’ with a book launch taking place in London on the evening of Saturday 15th January 2011. The launch will then be followed by a club night devoted to Ultravox with a DJ set based on all the early Ultravox PLUS some very special mixes. Details to be confirmed.
Remembering Eden is a five chapter journey presented in the form of a story which takes us from the ‘80’s right through to the present with the Return to Eden 2 tour being represented in its entirety. In brief, it contains:
Foreword by Rusty Egan
Exclusive interviews with Chris Cross and Billy Currie – provided by journalist Rob Kirby and only ever published in their entirety in the Re:Vox Fanzine which is now out of print, therefore many may not have read these.
Alan Wild (original lighting designer) looks at the professional side of stage sets and lighting for the various tours.
Laurie Small gives an insight into tour managing the band in the 1980’s with his stories and recollections while ex crew member (80’s) Roy Gwinn talks about specific preparation for the return.
Zaine Griff recalls his memories of working with/meeting band members in the 1980’s
Fan reviews and extensive photo library (including professional prev unpublished photos) covering all of Return to Eden 2 and highlights from Return to Eden 1.
Martin Slade talks about the 2010 Vienna Campaign
The publication also includes individual detailed band member biographies plus a snapshot of solo work, and a full band biography – all superbly illustrated with the fantastic digital artwork of Toni Hearn.
