PIL - Agra-Halle, Leipzig, Germany - 16th May 2016

 So here it is.

It's taken 13 years to get here but this is the final PIL audience recording that I have in my collection. Thats it, all shared and done. Hopefully the Tour this year will bring me a couple of new ones to share with you. But for now my first music share of 2022 is my last PIL gig.

A first gen copy straight from the original master recording, I hope you enjoy it.

PIL - 15th June 2016, Concorde 2, Brighton - An Acid Drops Exclusive recording

This was a really good gig, PIL were amazing on the night (but I would say that wouldn't I)

The Concorde 2 venue really suits PIL, it has a great sound and always sells out.

Well this gig was recorded by myself. I finally decided to get proactive, I only bought my Tascam DR 05 the day before so I just recorded the show with the settings that it came with. Its not perfect but its not bad for a first attempt.

This recording is only available here on Acid Drops for you all.

Also comes with CD artwork created by myself - I hope you enjoy it

Following on from highly successful 2015 dates in UK, Europe and North America John Rotten Lydon’s Public Image Ltd (PiL) are pleased to announce a further UK/Europe summer tour kicking off in Valencia, Spain on Friday, May 6th (see below for all dates). Several of the 2015 dates were sold-out and regarded by many as the best performances the band have ever played.

Tickets go on general sale at 9am on Monday, January 18th, preceded by a pre-sale beginning at 9am on Friday, January 15th through to Monday 18th. See www.pilofficial.com for ticket links and additional information.

The 22 date tour includes a return to London’s, Indigo at 02 on Saturday, June 4th (which PiL previously sold-out in December 2014). The tour takes in festival and club shows in Spain, Germany, Slovakia, Poland and Ukraine before heading to the UK on Tuesday, May 24th for a re-arranged show at Coventry, The Copper Rooms at Warwick University.

The band will also headline the Bearded Theory Festival in Walton-on-Trent on Saturday, May 28th and play shows in Wakefield, Wrexham, Cardiff, Sunderland, Lincoln, Blackburn, Oxford and Sheffield; as well as the previously mentioned Indigo at O2 show in London.

Last year the band released their 10th studio album ‘What The World Needs Now…’ which peaked at number 29 in the official UK album charts and picked up fantastic acclaim from both press and public. (The album also peaked at number 3 in the official UK indie charts and number 4 in the official UK vinyl charts). ‘What The World Needs Now…’ was self-funded by PiL and released on their own label ‘PiL Official’ via Cargo UK Distribution.

Widely regarded as one of the most innovative and influential bands of all time, PiL’s music and vision earned them 5 UK Top 20 singles and 5 UK Top 20 albums.
