MOK Music Festival wrote:News just released tonight is the all standing event in the Victoria Hall in Campbeltown will see Deacon Blue headline the new Saturday night format!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Details of the night will unfold over the next few weeks as the committee finalise details.

A sure sell out and definite crowd pleaser this is a massive catch for the Mull of Kintyre Music Festival as they bid to change the format of the Music Festival this year.

Details of tickets will be posted on here and on the web site http://www.mokfest.com as soon as they are made available. However, tickets will not be available until late May/early June.

Deacon blue hit the big time (and still going strong) in the late 80s and early 90s with a string of top hits including:-

Raintown, Real Gone Kid, Queen of the New Year, Dignity, Wages Day, Fergus sings the blues, I'll never fall in love again etc....

Led by frontman Ricky Ross (who is just about to embark on a Solo Tour in May as he releases his new album Pale Rider) Deacon Blue consist of Lorraine McIntosh on vocals (also known on River City), Mick Slaven on Guitar, Ewen Vernal on Bass, James Prime on Keyboards and Dougie Vipond on drums (also well known BBC Scotland football pundit)

Superb gig in store as Campbeltown and Kintyre sees its second big name hit the Victoria Hall Stage within the space of 2 months (Proclaimers play on 18th June 2005).

Special thanks to Iain Johnston for all the hard work he has done!! :wink: :lol:
