Amsterdam will perform at the Red Lion venue in Ellesmere Port this Sunday night. The show was originally booked as a warm up for this years now aborted Mathew Street festival but the lads decided to go ahead with it anyway.

So if you wish to see Ian and Johnny return to play their hometown then doors will be at 8:00pm. Tickets are £6.00 or if you get there early enough you can pay on the door.

Support comes from The Trestles and The Missin’ Beats.

You can now buy tickets for the two special Amsterdam live album launch shows in Liverpool and London.

Liverpool comes first on Saturday 15 September at the Carling Academy. Support for this gig comes from the classic newly reformed Liverpool band Rain. This will be their first show for 14 years so a great night out is promised for all. Tickets are available from Ticketweb and Seetickets.

The following Saturday on the 22 Amsterdam hit London for there only headline show of the year in the capital at the famous Borderline club. You can also buy tickets for this show Ticketweb and Seetickets..

The brand new live album 1,2,3,4! will be first available at these two shows.

Amsterdam will make up for the huge disappointment following the cancellation of Mathew Street by playing at the Liverpool Carling Academy on Saturday 15 September.

This night will also see the launch of the first ever live Amsterdam album to be called 1,2,3,4!. The boys then move onto London a week later to continue promotion of the live CD.

Two great nights are promised as these will be the first ever shows the gang have played since expanding to a six piece and finishing their masterpiece album, Arm in Arm.

Amsterdam finally return to the Capital for the first time in 2007 on Saturday 22 September to launch the live album at the Borderline club.

Excitement is already growing as most Amsterdam fans will know that the Borderline in Soho is the band’s spiritual home and it will have been 10 months since the boys played in London.

Tickets will be on sale soon and this will be the boys ONLY headline performance in London this year.

Meanwhile, after weeks of rumour and speculation here in Liverpool it has finally been confirmed that the Mathew Street festival have cancelled the main stage this year and cut the festival by one day. The boys received this communique from the Liverpool Culture company today;

Unfortunately due to having to re-evaluate the Festival this year we are unable to have the big act names as in previous years.

As you may be aware we have lost the Pier Head site due to the Canal Works and have had to reduce the event to two days due to various factors which has all meant that there will be no main stage in 2007.

We are sorry that we are unable to invite you to perform at this years festival, but we hope to work with you again in the near future.

Best wishes.
Sue McAdam
Event Manager

This unfortunatly means Amsterdam will NOT be peforming this year.The planned warm up show at the Red Lion Venue in Ellesmere Port WILL go ahead though for fans who feel let down.

Amsterdam will be onstage at 7:45pm prompt at the Summer Pops this Saturday night. The boys will play for 30 minutes so if you’re going, cheer them on amongst the electro pop pickers.

Two dates are about to be announced to promote the forthcoming live album in September/October.
