Fish im Herbst auf Farewell-Tour in Deutschland
Fish, die Ikone des Progressive Rock und gefeierter Künstler, Sänger, Musiker, Frontmann und Texter der Extraklasse, kündigt seine Abschiedstournee „Road To The Isles“ an, mit der er sich nach vier Jahrzehnten voller Hits und Erinnerungen endgültig verabschiedet. Er wird sowohl durch Europa als auch durch UK touren, wobei er sein letztes Konzert auf dem Festland am 03. November in Berlin geben wird.
In den 80ern wurde Derek Dick, den alle nur unter dem Namen Fish kennen, als Sänger und vor allem als Texter für die Band Marillion bekannt. Mit Alben wie „Script for a Jester’s Tear“, „Clutching at Straws“ und vor allem „Misplaced Childhood“ mit dem Welthit „Kayleigh“ wurde der Schotte bekannt. Doch am Höhepunkt des Erfolgs stieg der schüchterne Sänger, der damals nur in Verkleidung auftreten konnte, aus und begann seine lange Solokarriere. Bereits 2020 veröffentlichte er mit „Weltschmerz“ das Album, das er als sein letztes bezeichnete. Doch die nachfolgende Farewell-Tour fiel der Corona-Pandemie zum Opfer – und wird nun nachgeholt: „Eine Tournee als ,Abschiedstournee‘ zu bezeichnen, hat eine gewisse Schwere, und ich bin so froh, dass es mir gelungen ist, eine Best-of-Besetzung von Musikern aus meiner gesamten Live-Karriere zusammenzubringen. Es sind nicht nur hochtalentierte Musiker, sondern auch alte Freunde und Co-Autoren einiger meiner besten Songs. Es fühlt sich eher wie ein Hollywood-Film an, in dem sich Veteranen für eine letzte Mission zusammenfinden, als eine Rock‘n‘Roll-Tour.“ Deren Titel bezieht sich auf einen Bauernhof auf den Hebriden, auf die sich Fish anschließend mit seiner Frau zurückziehen will, um Drehbücher und Romane zu verfassen. Schließlich sei er eher ein Autor, der singen kann, als ein Sänger, der schreibt.
Aber vorher will er noch einmal die Luft der Straße atmen und seinen Fans etwas zurückgeben, die ihm über die Jahre Inspiration und Ansporn waren. Eines stellt Fish auf alle Fälle klar: „Das wird keine dieser endlosen Abschiedstourneen sein, und es gibt keine feste Setlist. Es gibt so viele potentielle Songs aus den Soloalben und auch von Marillion. Wir proben etwa 25 bis 30 Songs, die wir nach Belieben spielen. So bleibt es interessant, sowohl für uns als auch für die Fans, die nicht wissen werden, welche Songs an dem Abend gespielt werden, an dem sie kommen.“ Danach sei endgültig Schluss. Wer dabei sein will: Fish kommt Mitte Oktober und Anfang November ein letztes Mal nach Deutschland.
Präsentiert wird die Tour von Rolling Stone, kulturnews und event.
Einlass: 19:00Uhr
Restkarten evtl. an allen bekannten VVK-Stellen und an der Abendkasse erhältlich.
Fish in the fall on Farewell Tour in Germany
Fish, the icon of Progressive Rock and celebrated artist, singer, musician, frontman, and top-notch lyricist, announces his farewell tour "Road To The Isles," with which he will say goodbye after four decades full of hits and memories. He will tour through both Europe and the UK, with his last concert on the mainland scheduled for November 3 in Berlin. In the 80s, Derek Dick, known simply as Fish, became famous as the singer and especially as the lyricist for the band Marillion. With albums like "Script for a Jester’s Tear," "Clutching at Straws," and especially "Misplaced Childhood" featuring the global hit "Kayleigh," the Scotsman gained fame. However, at the height of his success, the shy singer, who could only perform in disguise at the time, stepped away and began his long solo career. In 2020, he released "Weltschmerz," the album he labeled as his last. However, the subsequent farewell tour fell victim to the Corona pandemic – and is now being rescheduled: "Calling a tour a 'farewell tour' carries a certain weight, and I am so glad that I managed to bring together a best-of ensemble of musicians from my entire live career. They are not only highly talented musicians but also old friends and co-writers of some of my best songs. It feels more like a Hollywood film where veterans come together for one last mission than a rock 'n' roll tour." The title refers to a farm on the Hebrides, where Fish intends to retreat with his wife to write screenplays and novels. He considers himself more a writer who can sing than a singer who writes. But before that, he wants to breathe the air of the road one last time and give something back to his fans who have inspired and motivated him over the years. One thing Fish makes clear: "This won't be one of those endless farewell tours, and there is no fixed setlist. There are so many potential songs from the solo albums and also from Marillion. We are rehearsing about 25 to 30 songs that we will play at will. This keeps it interesting for both us and the fans, who won’t know which songs will be played on the night they come." After that, it will be over for good. Those who want to be there: Fish will come to Germany one last time in mid-October and early November.
The tour is presented by Rolling Stone, kulturnews, and event.
Doors: 7:00 PM
Remaining tickets may be available at all known box offices and at the evening box office.

"Finale" - Die Abschiedstournee Zusatzkonzert
This could have gone on forever: Experiencing the "Stumpfes" with Bemberle and Linsengericht, with comedy, skill, and countless instruments live on stage repeatedly would have delighted their numerous fans. But: “Oi mal isch rom,” say the Stumpfes and embark on a farewell tour. Thus the sad news. The good news: It can still go on forever. At least on CD. And to all the previous CDs of ruthless house music from “Herrn Stumpfes Zieh & Zupf Kapelle” and all their own and borrowed songs, a new one is added. And Selle, Manne, Flex, and Benny have once again put everything, if not the last, into their new songs to sweeten the farewell. “Egalwosnogoht” – so in High German: It doesn't matter where the journey goes – is the final work and it primarily presents original songs. And in the way that has been a guarantee of success for the Stumpfes: With humor and pronounced musicality and with a fine sense for the absurdities of everyday life. Farewell pain? Not on the CD – even if a slightly melancholic “Ade, 's war schee” can be heard and with the title song “Ganz egal wo’s nogoht” the new chapter of life is musically utilized. With these new and again so ruthlessly catchy songs and their sharply formulated texts and the song treasure from 32 years, fans can be assured: The hits of the Stumpfes are still part of it – no matter where the journey goes.

Oysterband - " A Long Long Goodbye " Tour 2025
Hamburg, 07.05.2024. After 45 years, the OYSTERBAND has decided to let the tour bus roll through the UK, Denmark, and Germany one last time before retiring as a touring band. On May 10, 2024 at 12:00 pm, the pre-sale for the farewell tour of the Irish folk-rock band started on live.assconcerts.online-ticket.de and at other pre-sale outlets. For one year, the Irish plan to take their time to bid a very detailed farewell to their wonderful live audience on their "A Long Long Goodbye" tour. They aim to enjoy every minute of it! However, that does not mean they will stop making music altogether. Emerging from their folk club and ceilidh band days in the early 80s, the OYSTERBAND has performed both traditional and their own songs with an energy and passion that were electrifying for that time. Polkas, political content, and pulsating dance floors seemed "exactly right for Thatcher's Britain." Signing with the new roots label "Cooking Vinyl," headlining "English Roots Against Apartheid," performing multiple times at both Glastonbury and the Fleadh Festival, touring Europe with The Pogues and the USA with Billy Bragg, hosting the "Big Session Festival," all of this brought OYSTERBAND a large and loyal international fan base. In 1990, the collaboration with June Tabor resulted in the cult classic "Freedom & Rain"; 21 years later, another album: "Ragged Kingdom," which became one of the best-selling folk-rock albums of the new century. The OYSTERBAND has won multiple BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards, and some of their classics like "The Oxford Girl," "When I'm Up (I Can't Get Down)," "Everywhere I Go," and "Put Out The Lights" have long been included in the folk canon. The growing depth and sensitivity of their songwriting combined with the power of John Jones' voice and their outstanding musical ability have made their music acoustically more brilliant and profound over the years. Their work to date includes 20 albums, with the Best-Of album "This House will Stand" followed by the 2022 album "Read The Sky" along with the corresponding tour. And now, the final tour.
