Fish announces ‘Vigil’s End’ UK show

FISH has announced a special UK show!

Following the release of his final 2020 studio album Weltschmerz, the progressive rock figurehead will perform a special UK concert with the last ever full and final performance of his 1990 debut solo album Vigil In A Wilderness Of Mirrors.

The show will take place at The Assembly Rooms in Royal Leamington Spa on November 24th in front of a limited audience and the show will be filed via a multi-camera video shoot for a one-time only global broadcast, which will take place on December 17th. Tickets, which include a bundle for the show and livestream, are available now and can be purchased here.

Speaking about the show, the man himself says, “losing all the European shows yet again to the pandemic was a huge blow, especially when I was so excited about taking both the full Vigil album out on the road together with Weltschmerz after its astounding reception from fans and media alike. It was going to be the end of an era and a celebration of two hugely important albums in my career. My farewell tour was originally planned to begin at the end of 2021 after I had taken Vigil and Weltschmerz out but all the timings became derailed and I had to make a tough decision to curtail the tour and move my farewell tour to at least the end of 2022.

I was fully aware of the massive disappointment especially from my European fans which is why I decided to set up a global broadcast of a recorded show to at least provide some compensation for missing out on this historical career event. Playing Vigil, my first solo album from 1990 in its entirety together, with tracks from Weltschmerz my final album from 2020 provides a spiritual bookend of sorts and sets me up for the Farewell tour starting late next year. It’s a beautiful piece of synchronicity if I do say so myself and the show at Leamington Assembly Rooms is the perfect way to say farewell to this particular era.”
