Live show by China Crisis, the AOR pop band from Kirkby, at The Drill in Lincoln.
China Crisis play The Drill on Friday 11 June 2027, presented by Scruff of the Neck. It's a standalone night with the band as the sole bill, and the age restriction is 14 plus.
China Crisis formed in 1979 in Kirkby, Merseyside, and these days they're essentially a duo: vocalist and keyboardist Garry Daly and guitarist Eddie Lundon. Their sound is AOR-fuelled pop, and in the 1980s their songs were everywhere. 'Wishful Thinking', 'Black Man Ray' and 'King In A Catholic Style (Wake Up)' are three of the ones that stuck around, and together their singles spent a total of 92 weeks in the charts. They've kept touring and playing festivals ever since.
