Rock legend Duff McKagan is hitting the road again, and this time, he’s bringing the soulful echoes of his third solo album, Lighthouse, to life across the UK and Europe. Starting in Dublin in late September 2024, McKagan’s tour will sweep through 15 cities in 11 countries, showcasing the depth and diversity of his latest work with high-energy, legendary live performances.
McKagan’s Message to Fans: “At Last! Let’s Go!”
With palpable excitement, McKagan tweeted to his followers, “At last! At last! See you all soon. #Lighthouse. Let’s go!” It’s clear that this tour is not just another routine series of dates; it’s a fervent return to the stage, celebrating the expanded edition of Lighthouse, which features eight new tracks and three exclusive live performance videos. These additions build on the album’s narrative, providing fans with a deeper, more intimate experience of McKagan’s musical journey.
Tour Dates and Ticket Info
The tour kicks off on Monday, September 30th, in Dublin at the Academy and will traverse key cities, including Glasgow, Manchester, London, Cologne, Munich, and Paris, before wrapping up in Stockholm at Nalen on 22nd October.
Tickets for this rock ‘n’ roll odyssey will go on sale at 10 AM GMT on Friday, 19th April 2024, available at Duff’s official website. For fans in the UK, a special presale will be available through Planet Rock at 10 AM GMT on Thursday, 18th April 2024, giving them early access to witness McKagan’s magic live.
More Than Just a Tour
The Lighthouse tour isn’t just about live music; it’s a showcase of McKagan’s evolution as a songwriter and musician. Having spanned over 40 years in the industry, his resume includes influential stints with bands like Guns N’ Roses and Velvet Revolver, and collaborations with music giants like Slash and Jerry Cantrell. Lighthouse sees him delve into a mix of hard-edged rock and introspective acoustic pieces, highlighted by tracks like “HOPE” and the philosophical “I JUST DON’T KNOW.
The tour promises to be an immersive experience, not just for the hardcore Duff McKagan fan but also for those new to his music. With the backdrop of his performances at Easy Street Records—available for fans to view online—McKagan is set to bring the same intimate yet explosive atmosphere to live stages across Europe.
