Demon
Days Live
1st – 5th November 2005 |
In a world
first, Gorillaz' smash hit second album Demon Days will
be performed in its entirety across five consecutive nights
(November 1st - 5th) at the Opera House, Manchester -
as part of a series of trailblazing events ahead of the
inaugural Manchester International Festival in late June
and early July 2007.
The album's guest musicians will descend on Manchester
to take on the task of recreating the three-million selling
Demon Days live onstage. The two-dimensional band members
will take a back seat as their musical collaborators are
brought together for the first time ever, in five remarkable
and unrepeatable performances. Guest musicians will include
Happy Mondays front-man Shaun Ryder and UK hip hop artist
Roots Manuva, with further names to be announced in the
run-up to the event.
Set against a backdrop of vintage grandeur, the intimate
2,000-anight capacity audience will be the first to experience
the full Demon Days set performed by all the contributing
musicians with the band expected to put in an appearance.
Details of when tickets go on sale will be announced at
a later date – register at www.gorillaz.com and
the festival website www.manchesterinternationalfestival.com
to receive details as they are announced.

"I mean this event is the one and only time this is ever
gonna happen, where we’ll be able to bring together
the ‘Demon Days’ guest performers along with
these other musicians. So it’s a definite one-off."
