PiL return to Dublin

Lydon and co are back this summer.

The Hot Press Newsdesk, 11 Apr 2012

Joyous news! Following last year’s triumphant Tripod gig, John Lydon is bringing PiL back to Dublin on July 29 for a show in the even more intimate Button Factory. Tickets priced €29.50 (standing) and €33.50 (if for some peculiar reason you want to stand) go on sale on Monday April 16.

Ahead of that comes the May 25 release here of new album This Is PiL, with an EP, On Drop, out on April 21 to coincide with Record Store Day. It’s the first new Public Image material for 20 years and sounds the dog’s proverbials.
