Orange Goblin Postpones 25th Anniversary Livestreams to December

Orange Goblin have announced that due to the latest lockdown they have been forced to reschedule their upcoming 25th Anniversary Global Live Streaming Shows from this month to December. The shows were slated to take place next week, but will instead perform a pair of globally streamed pay-per-view shows online, still with a limited capacity live audience also in attendance, in London on December 18th and 19th. Titled ‘From Planet Ten….to the House of God’, the first night will concentrate solely on material from the bands early, Rise Above Records era releases. The following night’s performance goes under the name of ‘They Come Back….The Filthy & The Damned’, and will focus on songs from post-Rise Above years, right up to and including material from the acclaimed latest album ‘The Wolf Bites Back’

Vocalist Ben Ward is philosophical about the change of dates;

‘Obviously the second nationwide lockdown is a massive pain in the arse for everyone and now due to the venue being shut throughout November we have no choice but to reschedule these special live / live stream shows to Friday 18th and Saturday 19th December! We are very sorry to everyone for the inconvenience but we sincerely hope that everyone can still join us for what will be two very special 25th Anniversary shows and the last ever with our original bassist and best buddy Martyn Millard! All tickets previously purchased to attend the shows will still be valid for the new dates, as will any pre-purchased live stream access. It’s pretty ironic that these shows will now take place on the exact same dates as we were due to perform in London as part of the UK tour. Apologies once again for the postponement but these things are obviously out of our hands and we all hope you can all join us in December!’

Tickets for these shows via the live stream will be available at www.hotel-radio.com/landing/orange-goblin-xxv-anniversary

Extremely limited physical tickets to the show ‘live in person’ are still available from www.old-empire.co.uk

Anyone unable to attend the rescheduled dates should contact Old Empire directly for information and help

These two shows have taken on added significance in recent weeks with the news that long term bass player and founding member Martyn Millard is to leave the group after 25 years. These two dates will be his last performances with the band and a fitting way to bow out after 9 albums and countless tours and festival appearances worldwide.

As part of the celebration for the Anniversary, Orange Goblin have a new ‘Vol.25’ shirt design available for sale here, which can be purchased here in advance of the two rescheduled live stream shows:
