Paul Collins’ Feel The Noise Gets Garageland Tour

PAUL COLLINS KICKS-OFF HIS NATIONAL “GARAGELAND TOUR” THIS THURSDAY IN LOUISVILLE, KY IN FURTHER SUPPORT OF HIS NEW STUDIO ALBUM “FEEL THE NOISE”

PAUL’S “GARAGELAND TOUR” WILL FEATURE HIS PERFORMANCES WITH THE BEAT, ALONG WITH GREAT LOCAL BANDS, DJS, RECORD SHOWS AND HAPPY HOUR BEFORE THE SHOWS

“Hello, we are about to embark on the very first Garageland Tour, it is a new concept for touring in our little world and the idea is to try and connect all of us, bands, fans, record stores, clubs, promoters and small labels in an attempt to make the touring experience more successful and profitable for the bands who go out on the road. We want to start a network that all of the musicians, fans and professionals can tap into so we can help ourselves to get ahead.”

“This is a fine example of the old guard working with the new guard; I’ve earned a few stripes over these last four decades, first with The Nerves, then with The Beat and now with my nonstop touring machine, The Paul Collins Beat. I tour almost exclusively with up-and-coming young bands like The Rich Hands, bands that embody the new wave of The New Wave, so it all fits, it all has come full circle. So get yourself down to the show and see what all these fine people are doing to get you to shake your booty and smile, to jump up and down and…do we dare say it? Yes… have a good time!” – PAUL COLLINS
