In 1984 Thompson Twins released what would become their iconic album ‘Into The Gap’.

The album featured five singles including the classic hits ‘Hold Me Now’ and ‘Doctor Doctor’ and reached no 1 in the UK and New Zealand, no 4 in Australia and no 10 in the USA.

In 2022, Tom Bailey will perform all of the songs from ‘Into The Gap’ for the first time ever in Australia in October for Destroy All Lines.

Tony Hadley Gives Australia A 40th Anniversary Party

This is Tony Hadley’s 40th Anniversary Tour but it covers a lot more than the last 40 years. The oldest song in the set, Frank Sinatra’s ‘One For My Baby’ goes back nearly 80 years. Chuck Berry’s ‘Carol’ is over 60 years old. Yes, it has been 41 years since that first Spandau Ballet album but Tony Hadley is putting this show in context. He is taking it back to where it all started for him.
