Madness - The Liberty of Norton Folgate
Third date confirmed as band support campaign to save Shoreditch
With their two previously announced dates all but sold out, Madness have announced, by popular demand, the addition of a third date - Thursday June 26th 2008 - to their Hackney Empire run, where they will be showcasing their 8th studio album and first original record in almost a decade; The Liberty of Norton Folgate.
In the year that marks 30 years of Madness it is the perfect moment to celebrate and reappraise a band that remain as relevant today as they did 30 years ago and who continue to inspire and evolve. Just 2 hours in the presence of Madness and all life's aches and pains will desert you! Let the mathematical and sensitive arrangements create sounds, frequency and musical notes to transform your very well being. It will be an evening of two halves that will take you on a journey through a stunning rendition of their brand new album whilst ensuring the popular Madness classics get their rightful airing.
A tribute to an area of London that became a byword for creativity and cultural diversity, you can walk across the Liberty of Norton Folgate in a few minutes. Underfoot, down into the soil, is old London. The past is very close in Norton Folgate. Always has been. Shakespeare probably lived there, and his fellow playwrights Ben Johnson and Christopher Marlowe certainly did. Them and a whole world of humanity stretching back as far as records go, and beyond, squeezed into a tiny patch of a giant city.
