Indie legends The Bluetones have announced their last ever tour, marking the end of an era for the band who have been going strong since they formed in the early '90s.
Frontman Mark Morriss says: "After 17 years and 6 albums, The Bluetones have decided that the time has arrived to call it a day and move on to other challenges. Before disappearing forever though, we will be heading out for one last tour, as a chance to say farewell and thank you to all the fans that have sustained us over these years, with a career-spanning Greatest Hits/Best Of... style set of songs. It's gonna be emotional."

Everyone who is expecting them to come back in 2 years time, please note that does sound rather final.

so other bands say when they tactically split "bear with us because we'll be back to rape your pockets in a couple of years" do they?

Saturday 10th September - Club Academy, Manchester This is the smallest of the 4, only about 300 capacity by the look of it... how long until we can get them bumped back up? Last few academy gigs have always been in 2, and this is a Saturday night!

I'm still not buying it that Birmingham on a Thursday night will be the last gig. Surely there'll be one special last gig somewhere?

Noooooooooooooooooooooo! Can't believe this'll be the last time I ever see them live. Always an uplifting experience is a 'Tones gig. I'm going to do my upmost to make sure I attend at least the Sheffield and Leeds ones.
