Following shows in Leeds and Bristol, Dananananaykroyd's 12-date farewell tour begins in hometown Glasgow and ends in a giant sphere of blood, guts, human flesh, fire and rock. Australia remembers the Glasgow lads fondly with two smashing appearances at Splendour In The Grass and consequent tours introducing us to the infamous “Wall of Cuddles”.
