Hold the phone Batman the Manic Street Preachers are comin’ to Australia! I honestly never thought I would see that day when Nicky Wire would get airborne again and make his way down here with Mr James Dean Bradfield Esquire and Mr Sean Moore. The Manics (as they are affectionately known) changed my life back when I was still a teen and looking for some smart, sexy, political minded, good old fashioned punk-slash-rock’n’roll – with a slight metal leaning of course. In fact so excited was I by the thought of seeing the Manics on stage again here in Melbourne (20 November at Festival hall – and just in time for my birthday!) that I busted out my Manics vinyl collection. Sigh – it will be a long few months wait.
