With former bandmate Gary Powell (drums), Anthony Rossomando (guitar) and ex Cooper Temple Clause bassist Didz Hammond in tow, the lineup was complete. After carving up the festival circuit in exuberant style, they released their first official single Bang, Bang, You&#39re Dead in April 2006, pre-empting their debut album Waterloo to Anywhere by a few weeks. This 12-show UK tour - the first since their sell-out December 07 dates - coincides with the summer release of their eagerly awaited second album. If you like: Babyshambles, The Libertines, try this!

Brighton Seafront, Yellowave Beachsports 30/05/08 - 30/05/08 http://www.brightonevent.co.uk/detail.php?event_id=14196 Promoted by Lout The Wedding Present have had eighteen UK Top 40 hit singles... not bad for a band that has, from its inception, stubbornly refused to play the record industry&#39s game. That was back in 1985 when David Lewis Gedge boarded a National Express coach in London with 500 records packed into a pair of his mother&#39s suitcases. In this fashion, the debut single Go out and get &#39em boy! was collected from the pressing plant, delivered to the distribution company, and The Wedding Present was born. That pioneering spirit has been at the core of the band&#39s philosophy ever since. From George Best, the first full-length release on their own Reception Records onwards, the band has charted an appealing, if often eccentric, course of its very own. The energy has been turned up even further for the new album El Rey, The Wedding Present&#39s first collaboration with the legendary Albini since the renowned Seamonstersin 1991. The band will be performing a full set at the El Rey Album Launch Party at Brighton Corn Exchange this may.
