OMG! OMG! Take me to prog rock heaven baby 'cos Pure Reason Revolution have confirmed five shows as support to the frankly awesome Oceansize!

PRR head honcho Jon Courtney told DiS about this last Friday night in Harlow (read live review here) and said he was "very excited" about the news. We couldn't believe our ears when he told us so we, er, didn't (sorry Jon, must've been the feedback) but it is true cos PRR's website, and their PR co. say it is.

The dates precede the release of PRR's ace new single 'Bright Ambassdors Of Morning' which is due for release April 4th. However, given it clocks in at 11 minutes long, it's unlikely to get any airplay or see any chart action. Bah!

Here's the dates folks - all are with Oceansize except the Manchester gig:
MARCH
28th Preston The Mill
29th Doncaster Leopard
30th Peterborough Met Lounge
31st Aldershot West End Centre

APRIL
1st Yeovil Flicks
15th Manchester Dry Bar (PRR only)

So the man told you they were touring with Oceansize and you didn't believe it was true until you checked with a website and a PR company?
Top journalism there, son.

i'd see them if the nearest gig wasn't doncaster. seriously, have they ever been to doncaster? why would anyone ever have a desire to play there?

Re: Viva La ...Revolution! Pure Reason... to tour as Oceansize support

OI! nothing wrong with donny (says man who moved away 4 years ago...). oceansize have played doncaster before, if my memory serves me.

The leopard is fun, smells of piss, but most of the town probably need colostonmy bags.

Ugh... scarf-wearers. They'd better be good, supporting the colossus of (Trafford) Road(s). My *GOD* that was poor. Apologies.

Re: Viva La ...Revolution! Pure Reason... to tour as Oceansize support

The Leopard is a cool little venue in my old band we played there with The Futureheads & Kasabian, amongst others
