As we know, psych-rockers Bo Ningen are based in London and it is natural to have several shows in the UK and Ireland (as they did last summer), but this month, October, they will finally tour a number of other countries in Europe.
After announcing these shows, scheduled to take place in Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany and France, some adjustments eventually had to be made. Among others, Red Forest Festival in Dortmund and Berlin were on the tour schedule, but these two dates seem to have been moved to April 2023. In addition, some shows in Belgium have been rescheduled. Anyway, these are the tour dates.
Thursday, October 20, 2022: Trefpunt – Ghent, Belgium
Friday 21 October, 2022: Le Café Central – Brussels, Belgium*
Saturday 22 October, 2022: Left Of The Dial Festival – Rotterdam, Netherlands
