Instead, they embarked on their rescheduled ‘A Head Full Of Ideas 31st Anniversary Best Of Tour’ last year, playing shows in the UK and Ireland.Unfortunately, they were forced to again reschedule shows after members of the crew contracted COVID.The band’s last album ‘Different Days’ was released in 2017, with frontman Tim Burgess saying last March that the outfit would be getting back in the studio once lockdowns were lifted.
