Show Must Go On: DJs wait to get to the party
Show Must Go On: Lights Out By Nine turns to archives to keep the band’s call alive
Fife’s legendary band, The Skids, is back where it’s all for a live concert next week.
The band will perform acoustic versions of their vintage songs live from Dunfermline’s recording studio, which was their home in their training years.
Take position on Sunday, August 23 at 8 p.m. and tickets are already on sale.
The Skids were formed through Richard Jobson and the late Stuart Adamson as teenagers in 1977.
Two years later, they made a great fortune with their anthem, Into The Valley.
For a long time, one of the most productive bands that emerged from the Kingdom, enjoyed a great fortune before retiring after four albums and separating: Jobson to direct The Armory Show and Adamson to shape Big Country.

In 2017, Jobson reactivated The Skids and rediscovered great success for his music, as well as critical acclaim for a new album, Burning Cities, and an incredibly successful 40th anniversary tour.
The band also recorded their first acoustic album, Peaceful Times, which revised the curtains of all their past versions and, with the rooms still closed due to the coronavirus’s blockade, they returned to the Fife studio that their place for a live concert.
He will provide pieces from his entire career, as well as Jobson stories about his life and musical, film and writing career.
