LEGENDARY British Band The Manfreds are heading to the Lighthouse Poole on October 19 as part of their half-century Anniversary Celebration Tour.
Original Manfred Mann members Paul Jones, Mike Hugg and Tom McGuinness, are joined by Rob Townsend, Marcus Cliffe and Simon Currie as the new line-up.
Since Manfred Mann formed in 1962, they have firmly secured their place in the history books of British popular and R&B music.
They'll be playing from their greatest hits list which includes: 5-4-3-2-1, Just Like A Woman, Do Wah Diddy, Semi Detached Suburban Mr James, Sha La La, Ha! Ha! Said the Clown, Come Tomorrow, The Mighty Quinn, My Name is Jack and Pretty Flamingo.
These are all before you even get to their individual hits, such as Build Me Up Buttercup and Handbags & Gladrags by Mike d'Abo or the theme to The Likely Lads and Up the Junction.
50 years later The Manfreds are celebrating their remarkable longevity with a major tour across the country. It sees the stellar line-up playing all the hits and more.
