From Wayne:
I’m looking out of my hotel window in Lisbon this lunchtime, the sun is shining with not a cloud in the sky and I think to myself, ‘it looks like a beautiful day’ but I feel differently.
It’s with great sadness that I’m writing to tell you that, after discussions with the rest of the band, management, agents & promoters, we have made the very difficult decision to end the tour tonight in Lisbon the remaining dates on our 2020 European tour will be rescheduled.

Over the last week decisions to cancel shows were being made daily by local venues and promoters, governments, and administrations because of the Coronavirus and the subsequent legislations that are being made and changed daily to combat its spread. More shows are undoubtedly due to be cancelled, with the landscape changing daily. To safeguard the well-being of the band, our crew, and our audience, and to abide by local regulations and rules we had to make the unprecedented decision to cut our losses and go home. We will be able to re-schedule this tour for a time in the not so distant future when it will be safe for crowds of people to congregate again.

As soon as we have any info regarding rescheduling we’ll let you know. Hold onto to your tickets for the time being until we sort out how we’re going to do it. All tickets will be valid for the re-arranged shows or a refund will be available from place you purchased the ticket if that is your choice. I also know that there have been a fair few that bought tickets for the shows we have already played but didn’t come because of the Coronavirus fear. We would like to offer a gift to those of you who have stayed away, anyone wishing to send a copy of your unused ticket to info@anger-management.co will be contacted in due course.

Of course we realise that some have gone to great lengths and expense and travelled long distances to support us, and it seems almost patronising to say ‘we’re sorry for any inconvenience caused’ – it doesn’t feel enough to say that. I say it nonetheless and thank you from the bottom of my heart for your continued support. I’m sure Craig, Simon, and Mike join me in that sentiment.

Tonight’s show in Lisbon at Ao Vivo, the 2nd of two nights, is still going ahead and will be the last show of the tour. So let’s try to make it a huge celebration of life, love, and music, and say our farewells until this situation rectifies itself as it surely will at some point. We will miss you. Safe travels, be safe, be vigilant, and treat each other with kindness, respect, and love for humankind.

På 30 år har the Mission hunnit producera alldeles för mycket fantastisk musik för att rymmas på en kväll, så när bandet nu besöker Stockholm blir det inte bara för en, utan två oförglömliga konsertkvällar. Nu ges alltså den unika chansen att uppleva det mesta och bästa ur The Missions repertoar: en del på lördagen den 18 april, och den andra på söndagen den 19 april, och varför välja? Både en- och tvådagarsbiljetter släppta!

Allt började när sångaren Wayne Hussey och basisten Craig Adams, som båda tidigare var en del av The Sisters of Mercy, tillsammans med trummisen Mick Brown och gitarristen Simon Hinkler startade vad som snart skulle bli känt som The Mission. Bandet har haft enormt stora framgångar med album som ”Gods Own Medicine och ”Carved In Sand”, samtidigt som medlemmar har kommit och gått. När The Mission nu ger sig ut på ”The United European Party Tour” sitter Mike Kelly bakom trummorna, originalmedlemmarna Craig Adams på bas och Simon Hinkler på gitarr och den evige sångaren Wayne Hussey som frontfigur.

Wayne Hussey har en hälsning inför turnén, som har fått sitt namn som en hyllning till musikens kraft att samla människor i gemenskap:

“Music is about people, emotions, feelings, togetherness; not division, borders, extreme right or left or wanker politicians. So let’s get together, have a sing-song, some fun, and let’s celebrate life and being part of the human family.

One thing I wanted to do on this tour to ease the rigours of spending another solid 10-12 weeks on a tour bus is to play two nights everywhere we can. That affords us at least one night in two sleeping in a hotel bed. It also enables us to play completely different sets on each of the 2 nights. Our plan is to play songs one night exclusively from our 1st, 3rd, 5th and so on albums – First Chapter, Children, Grains Of Sand, Neverland, Aura, & The Brightest Light – whilst the other night will be songs exclusively from albums, 2, 4, 6 etc – God’s Own Medicine, Carved In Sand, Masque, Blue, God Is A Bullet, & Another Fall From Grace. Which set comes on the first night will be decided on the day so you’ll never know which you’re gonna get first. A little devious maybe but to ensure you don’t miss a beat you’ll need to attend both nights……Ah, come on, it’ll be fun…”
