Manic Street Preachers have announced plans for a full European tour focussing on their recent compilation 'National Treasures'.
Released last year, 'National Treasures' seemed to underline just how potent Manic Street Preachers can be. A singles collection, it matched together some of the band's most essential material to date.
Playing a one off show at the O2 Arena, Manic Street Preachers threw everything into the performance. Amongst the band's most widely hailed shows, the Welsh trio have now confirmed plans to take 'National Treasures' to Europe.
Unlike the O2 Arena show, these dates will not feature every aspect of the compilation. Instead, Manic Street Preachers have confirmed that they will perform a selection of material from the album.
Quite the definition...
Opening in Copenhagen on April 15th, the shows continue with dates in Hamburg, The Hague, Amsterdam, Cologne and more.
Ending in Barcelona - the city which inspired the band's first number one single 'If You Tolerate This Then Your Children Will Be Next' - tickets for the upcoming tour are set to go on sale shortly.
