Coventry's finest THE SPECIALS have announced a European and UK tour for Autumn 2011, tickets go on sale at 9am on Friday 3rd December 2010. When The Specials kicked off the first night of their sold out 30th Anniversary tour in April 2009 nobody could have realised just how incredible these live shows would be, and the utterly amazing reaction of fans around the world. The audiences were packed with music lovers who had waited since 1981 to revisit this stunning band alongside Specials 'virgins' who had never had the chance to see them live. When the curtains dropped and Terry Hall, Lynval Golding, Neville Staple, Roddy Byers, Horace Panter and John Badbury exploded on stage to 'Do The Dog' dancehalls up and down the country erupted with young and old stomping as if their lives depended on it.
