The Bluetones play The Drill to mark the 30th anniversary of their debut album 'Expecting To Fly', with all four original members.
The Bluetones play The Drill on Sunday 8 November, as part of their Expecting To Fly 30th anniversary tour. The whole night is built around that first record, which went platinum and hit Number 1 in the UK charts, knocking Oasis' What's The Story (Morning Glory) off the top spot for a week. Its most successful single, 'Slight Return', reached Number 2.
Across three decades, the band have put out no fewer than three Top 10 albums and 13 Top 40 singles. And here's a rarity these days: all four original members are still there. Mark Morriss on vocals, Adam Devlin on guitar, Eds Chesters on drums, and Scott Morriss on bass. They've built a reputation as one of the UK's most consistently entertaining live acts, and this tour takes them back to where it all started.

The Drill on Free School Lane is their Lincoln home for the night. It opened in 1890 as a military training facility before becoming a versatile arts and community venue, so it's a bit of a different space from your usual gig room. Doors open at 19:00, and general admission standing is £30.25 including fees, with a £2.75 booking fee on top.
