Split into two parts, the first half of the show sees Bruce taking a hu- morous, often satirical look back at his colourful, roller- coaster life. Delivering com- pelling tales in his uniquely anarchic style and punctu- ated with photographs, he recounts anecdotes from the book, including numerous risqué stories which never quite made it to the final ed- it….. ! The second half of the evening is devoted entirely to a Q&A session. Tickets go on sale on Monday 8 th April 2019 from www.showshap- pening.com JULY 9 Dream Theater Rock 'N Malta presents pro- gressive metal pioneers Dream Theater promising a unique, complex yet melodic, hard yet emotional brand of rock which is as sweet on the heart as it is crushing on the bones.
