Former VENOM Frontman To Perform At PHIL LYNOTT Charity Tribute Gig

August 9, 2007

The Boys Are Back In Bolton is a charity event which celebrates the life and music of rock legend Philip Lynott and THIN LIZZY.

The event has the blessing of Philip's mother, Philomena Lynott, who will be opening the night's festivities with a specially recorded video message. All profits from the gig will go to Philomena's charity, The Roisin Dubh Trust, which is hoping to set up a Philip Lynott Music Scholarship to benefit underpriveliged young people.

The gig will feature top THIN LIZZY tribute band TIZZ LIZZY from Belfast who have wowed audiences at similar tribute events in Scotland and Ireland, along with rising U.K. rockers THE TEMPLE DOGS and SEE RED, and an acoustic set from ACOUSTIC LIZZY (who will also be performing at the second annual Philip Lynott Statue Memorial Concert in Dublin, on Saturday, August 18).

SEE RED's set will feature a guest appearance from current ATOMKRAFT and former VENOM frontman Tony "Demolition" Dolan (a big fan of LIZZY),who will be joining the band for a blast through LIZZY classic "Cold Sweat".

TIZZ LIZZY will perform well-loved classic hits from throughout Philip's career, and the other bands performing will be playing gems from THIN LIZZY's albums and Philip's solo albums. Frontman Matt Wilson bears a jaw-dropping resemblance to Phil Lynott — see photo photo.

If you're a LIZZY fan, mark Saturday, September 22 in your diary now and join us at Bolton's premier rock venue, The Soundhouse, for a night to remember! Doors open 7:30 p.m.

Tickets are priced at £5 and are available from www.theboysarebackinbolton.com and from Bolton Albert Halls ticket office on (+ 44) 1204 334400.
