U:Mack are bringing old school rockers The Magic Band to Dublin.

They are out on tour and will be performing music from all the albums they created with Captain Beefheart who retired in 1982 but passed away in 2010 sadly. However his music will live on and will be brought back to life by his Magic Band.

The gig is in The Button Factory on Friday December 2nd 2011. Tickets for the show are €25 and are available from Tickets.ie. Doors are at 7.30pm. It promises to be an amazing show and a most likely a touching tribute to Captain Beefheart.

Here is a video of The Magic Band playing “Circumstances” on Swedish television.
