The Wurzels Gig Archive 1974-1998

We have even less information about post-Adge Wurzels gigs up to 1999 where Zider Ed's gig archive started. If you have any dates and venues please let us know so we can start building this archive. Dig out those old ticket stubs, plough through those old diaries - let's see what comes up!

Summer 1974 - The Globe Inn, Newton St Loe, near Bath
According to the Wurzels World book, after Adge's death The Wurzels 'played solidly there for a week' to see if the band had any future...which obviously they did!

1976 (exact date unknown) - Yew Tree Country Club in Langford
This was apparently the venue for the recording the 1976 live album The Combine Harvester. I have no other information about the venue, or indeed the location (probably the village on the outskirts of Taunton, or possibly on the outskirts of Bristol)

1977 - The Wurzels completed two sell-out major nationwide tours. If anyone has any of the dates, we'd appreciate them.

1978 - The Wurzels toured the Middle East.

May-Sept 1980 - The Wurzels played the summer season at the Princess Theatre in Torquay, as special guest stars supporting The Bachelors, with The Mosaics Puppet Fantasy and Pete Price (TV and recording star) also on the bill. According to the showbill (right), the season ran from Friday 23rd May (8pm show) to Saturday 20th September, with the band playing two shows at 6pm and 8.30 Monday through to Saturday! At least they got Sundays off!

Summer 1983 - The Wurzels promoted their Freshly Cut album with a Summer Show '83 tour which included a date (or more) at the Babbacombe Theatre, Babbacombe Downs, Torquay TQ1 3LU.
