The Long Players Present.... only time will tell - Matinee

You know the form - a celebration of the oodles of local talent reproducing (and then some) a classic album from a seminal artist! Tickets on sale at midnight on Saturday 7th February. Malmesbury’s very own musical collective, The Long Players, will be putting their own spin on the Rolling Stones’ album, Sticky Fingers. With the Long Players preening like Jagger-esque peacocks at the Town Hall on 21st March, you can expect a multimedia happening that will be talked about long afterwards… man. There will be a flurry of flamboyant costumes, an extravaganza of extraordinary dancing and a musical masterclass as the Long Players tune up, unzip and strut their way through a raunchy, and note-perfectly (Marianne) faithfull tour of this classic 1971 album as well as other hot rocks from the Stones’ lip-smackingly, hand-clappingly stunning back catalogue. The Long Players is an ever-evolving but relentlessly beautiful gathering of some 40-plus of Malmesbury’s most talented musicians, singers, artists and performers, and have been reproducing classic albums, right on our doorstep for over a decade now. You’d be… ahem… bananas to miss it.ery closley ...
