What better way to celebrate the very first gig in Toyah’s Changeling Resurrection Tour 2012 at the Brighton Concorde 2 than a Toyahtastic party after the show with a soundtrack requested by YOU!
Legendary post punk/new wave artist Toyah will be kicking off her long awaited tour of what was arguably her finest album ‘The Changeling’ at Brighton’s Concorde 2 venue incorporating some of her early groundbreaking material (as heard on the much applauded live album “Warrior Rock’) to create a stunning live show that has been eagerly awaited by Toyah fans!
Invite your friends and join everyone at The Jive Monkey (5 Steine Street, Brighton BN2 1TE) just a few minutes walk from the venue from 10pm till 2am for drinks and plenty of TOYAH TOYAH TOYAH!
FREE ADMISSION, GREAT PUB PRICED DRINKS AND A FANTASTIC FRIENDLY ATMOSPHERE RIGHT IN THE HEART OF THE CITY.
