S.O.S. FESTIVAL WITH BLAZE BAYLEY
FORMER Iron Maiden singer Blaze Bayley headlines this year's S.O.S. Festival at Radcliffe Civic Suite.
The legendary rocker tops the second School's Out for Summer concert on July 11 which features no fewer than 11 bands.
The event is the only one of its kind in the area and is an all-day rock & metal festival featuring an array of talent from around the country as well as several well-known local heroes.
Event organiser Lynne Hampson said: "It's a real coup for the festival to have Blaze headline the day for us. We can't believe the way the line-up has come together, with seven of the 11 bands signed to record labels. Things have progressed very fast indeed."
In addition to the music there is a licensed bar, food bar and various stalls befitting an event of this nature.
This year's SOS is co-presented by Rock Radio Manchester 106.1FM, following last year's attendance by DJ Paul Anthony who was impressed by what he saw.
The full line-up is: Blaze Bayley, Fury UK, Babylon Fire, Incassum, Decadenze, Serotonal, Nightvision, Crosswire, Exit State, Defiant, False Image.
Advance tickets are available now from Ticketline for only £5 at www.ticketline.co.uk or by telephone on 08714 244444. Alternatively the charge on the door will be £7.
Doors open at 2pm, and the event runs until 11.30pm.
