Liam Gallagher sells out 100,000 tickets in single morning for UK headline tour

Phenomenal public demand for Liam Gallagher’s first solo arena tour saw all 100,000 tickets sell-out on the morning that they went on sale. It proved to be such a hot ticket that the tour was extended with a date at Newcastle’s Metro Radio Arena on December 1^st, while the Belfast date has been upgraded to The SSE Arena.

Representing his first tour following the October 6^th release of his debut solo album ‘As You Were’, the announcement comes as Liam is back at the height of his powers. His return has been nothing short of spectacular, from emotive scenes in Manchester to huge sing-a-longs at Glastonbury, while three new tracks – ‘Wall of Glass’, ‘Chinatown’ and ‘For What It’s Worth’ – are already establishing themselves as towering anthems, delivered with Liam’s once-in-a-lifetime vocal.

Liam’s debut album ‘As You Were’ is available to pre-order from his official site https://wbr.ec/liam-store. Everyone who pre-orders the album will receive instant downloads of ‘Wall of Glass’, ‘Chinatown’ and ‘For What It’s Worth’.

The album will be released on digital (standard and deluxe), CD (standard and deluxe) and vinyl (standard 12” and limited edition coloured 12” formats) formats. A special boxset is also available which compiles a coloured 12” vinyl of the album, an exclusive 7” format of ‘For What It’s Worth’, a print designed by Klaus Voorman (the artist behind The Beatles’ ‘Revolver’ album cover) and additional collectors’ items.

Featuring a huge London show at Alexandra Palace and a homecoming gig at Manchester Arena, the tour dates are:

Liam wrote or co-wrote every song that features on ‘As You Were’. In addition to Dan Grech–Marguerat, other key collaborators include Greg Kurstin and Andrew Wyatt. One of the most striking aspects of the album is that all the songs have a purpose. There’s no flab, nothing to cut. They all feel directed at something or someone, setting the record straight or getting his side of the story over.
