Zeche, Bochum, Germany30th October 2018
Fish, Doris Brendel
As a prelude to the release of his new studio album, ‘Weltschmerz’ which was planned for Summer of 2018, FISH is following up his acclaimed 2015-16 final performances of the ‘Misplaced Childhood’ album with a farewell 30th anniversary visit to ‘Clutching at Straws’, his last album with former band MARILLION. FISH wanted to perform the entire album and associated songs from that period some never played live before together with material from his solo career. It’s a rare chance to hear a unique set list that most likely will never be repeated as his next scheduled indoor shows in Europe in the autumn of 2018 will incorporate songs from the ‘Weltschmerz’ album together with the final full performances of ‘Clutching at Straws’.
