Control play their new album and some Beerzone tracks with special guests at The Smugglers Return, in a night celebrating the life of their friend Clint Thomas.
Control are playing The Smugglers Return on Saturday 7 November, with special guests joining them for the night. It's a double-bill, so there's more than just the main act to hear.
The set is built around two things: their new album, which they'll be playing through, and a selection of Beerzone tracks. If you've followed them for a while, the Beerzone songs will be the familiar ground; if you're coming in fresh, the new record is where the current focus is. Hearing them side by side gives you a decent sense of where they've come from and where they're heading.
There's a particular reason for the night, too. It's billed as a celebration of the life of Clint Thomas, a friend of the band. That puts the whole thing in a different light — it's not just another gig, but a night put on for someone they knew, with the music as the way of marking it. The Beerzone tracks fit into that, too, as they're part of the band's history rather than just a random dip into the back catalogue.
