There's something in the air this year. Concert announcements are so tempting and now another news comes from the music logs - Billy Idol is coming back to us on the same day as four years ago!
He seems to have had a blast Billy Idol, when in 2010 Tivoli Hall performed here for the first time, more than excellent. Not only does he return to us on the same day, he also returns to the same place. Legendary rocker this summer, he is again going to tour across Europe, which he will start on June 7 at the Swedish Rock Festival, and end on July 3 in Dresden, Germany.
Billy Idol with all his bit remains faithful rock'n'roll, although his style, irresistible charm and charisma have changed over time. He made his way onto the music scene as part of a notorious group called Bromley Contingent, which helped popularize the early punk movement in Britain, and the members were big fans of the band Sex Pistols and David Bowie. Billy Idol then, in 1976, got the position of frontman in the British a punk band Generation X, which disbanded five years later, but Billy was just getting started with his career. He decided to find his happiness across the pond, where he encountered a genius guitarist Steve Stevens.
In 1982, Idol already released his first album with the simple title Billy Idol, which experienced its fame on the Island a little later, namely in 1985, when the piece White Wedding became a big hit there, not only in the clubs, but also on MTV. Meanwhile, the year before, Idol burst onto the scene with an album Rebel Yell went double platinum, but it wasn't his only platinum album - the next one followed in 1987. From then on, everything went pretty much like clockwork. With his music, the idol reached the top of the music charts around the world, and the fans were mixed with hot rock hits such as Mony, Mony, Don't Need A Gun and Dancing With Myself, imbued with Billy's unmatched energy and charm.
"I definitely took punk with me everywhere I went," says Idol. “That was always the point. I wanted to transform my music, but I never wanted to lose it punk rock posture. Whatever we turned to - hard rock or disco or whatever else we've created over the years - it all helped give the music a spirit it wouldn't have if it hadn't evolved out of the punk movement." When some people thought that 1993 was over with the album Cyberpunk Billy Idol retired, he returned to the scene 12 years later as reborn and released albums in just two years Devil's Playground and Happy Holidays.
Billy Idol is enjoying the holidays, right. In 2008, a disc of his best compositions was released The Very Best of Billy Idol: Idolize Yourself, but this does not mean that the blond man of extraordinary charisma is resting. After the tour in 2010, this year he returns to European stages, where he will undoubtedly set fire. As always. You are invited to summer idolization!
