Who's as excited as Dave is right now?

Only issue is Oct 4 is the one date he can't do!!!

They'll be a Friday or Sunday night gig too won't there Gene?

Today marks an incredible 30 years since the release of our debut album Olympian. It feels like only yesterday we released these songs and we’re endlessly grateful for the love and support you've shown us over the years. To celebrate, we are beyond excited to announce that we will be reuniting for a very special show at the legendary Eventim Apollo in Hammersmith this October.

Presale ticket links will be sent out on Wednesday, 26th of March at 9am. Sign up here to receive access: geneofficial.com. Be sure to check your junk folder!

See you all there. Gene HQ x

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Another fantastic Common People night - we hope you all enjoyed it as much as we did.

Thanks so much to Counterfeit Brits - Britpop Tribute Band and Beyond for an awesome set - shame about that guest singer though... 😉

We think we raised about £2000 to go to the son of CP regular Daren Francis so thanks for all your generosity.

We love you all and we'll see you again soon. (Tip - Stick Sat Dec 13 in the diary)
