Thank you France & Belgium

Massive thanks to the excellent people at Blue Devils Bar, Arras (France) & Cafe Metro, Waarschoot (Belgium) for our gigs this weekend. We had an awesome time, meeting new people in Arras & at Waarschoot we also met up with many familiar Belgian faces from Wizzfest plus some new ones. Special thanks to Wizz & Caroline for looking after us & of course to the band Wizzard for playing these gigs with us. Also a special mention goes to Lee Birch who made an 850 mile round trip from Cumbria (UK) to see us in Arras, also Jolanda & Silvana who travelled from Holland to Waarschoot.

More pics to come but here's a quick preview from the photoshoot we did with Silvana.


We can't wait to return to Belgium on 4th June at Blue Angels Bar, Roeselaere, which is one day after we play The Rambler, Eindhoven, Holland on the 3rd. We hope to be able to announce a further date, again in Belgium, on 5th June which will complete our UK/Euro Tour February-June 2011.

Prior to returning to Europe as above, we have a London date on 2nd June, after our gigs in Leicester, Nottingham, Ebbw Vale, Bradford, Durham & Carlisle. Good times! :)

Thanks again.

See you out there.

Recent press reviews....

Metal Detector / Rockureview.com. "A Way Of Life" album review.. "It’s not an often occurrence that I get bombarded with emails & messages from fans telling me that I’m overlooking something great.. a very, very new appeal & could only be described as a “NEW WAVE” of NWOBHM.. a huge feeling that FURY UK are well (& truly) on their way up to some extremely big things & great times. 10/10" Read more....

Guru. Live review: Saxon / Wolfsbane / Fury UK at Leeds O2 Academy "Luke, is all over the stage throughout the set, windmilling his hair to the hard rock they purvey, whilst drummer Martin McNee is akin to Animal of the Muppets. Although, Martin is the more accomplished skin-basher.. Chris, whose guitar skills are, (in my opinion), up there with Steve Vai, Joe Satriani and Eddie Van Halen. I expect greater things to come for this band; they certainly deserve it". Read more....

Many thanks to both reviewers.. Metal Detector & James McPhillips.
