About this concert
Tre anni dopo il loro ultimo concerto italiano, i The Mission annunciano un ritorno in grande stile, con due date del The United European Party Tour previste per sabato 21 e domenica 22 marzo 2020 al Legend Club di Milano. I due concerti presenteranno delle scalette diverse, a sottolineare l’unicità di questa esperienza.Il The United European Party Tour prevede una doppia data in ogni città del tour, con due serate che saranno due grandi feste diverse tra loro. Il nome del tour nasce dalla volontà della band, come dichiara Wayne Hussey, di festeggiare la diversità delle culture europee, dopo essersi reso conto grazie alla vita on the road, di come sia proprio la musica a unire le persone. I concerti di questo tour sono quindi una forte dichiarazione sociale, dove la musica “riguarda le persone, le emozioni, i buoni sentimenti, la coesione; non c’è spazio per le divisioni, le barriere, o gli estremismi dettati dai politici”.La particolarità del nuovo tour dei The Mission sta nell’originale iniziativa di suonare nella stessa città per due sere consecutive: due eventi e due scalette completamente differenti, poiché in una delle due date hanno intenzione di suonare esclusivamente canzoni degli album pari della loro carriera - First Chapter, Children, Grains Of Sand, Neverland, Aura, The Brightest Light -, mentre nell’altra data suoneranno brani tratti dai loro album dispari - God’s Own Medicine, Carved In Sand, Masque, Blue, God Is A Bullet, Another Fall From Grace. La band sceglierà la scaletta il giorno stesso, perciò gli ascoltatori sapranno solo a concerto iniziato quali canzoni sentiranno.The Mission, la gothic rock band fondata da Wayne Hussey e Craig Adams dopo la loro dipartita dai Sisters Of Mercy, a partire dal 1986 collezionano una lunghissima serie di successi e tour in tutto il pianeta, inclusi sette sold out consecutivi al London Astoria, record mai più battuto, e diverse partecipazioni come headliner a festival come il Reading.Le date21 e 22 marzo Milano, Legend Club

The Mission Biography

Several bands have used this name.

1) The Mission (known as The Mission UK in the United States due to a naming clash with a Philadelphia R&B band) is a gothic rock band formed in 1986 from the splinters of the freshly-dissolved rock band The Sisters of Mercy.

It was started in Leeds by frontman Wayne Hussey, lead/vocals, guitar and Craig Adams, bass (both of the Sisters)and both in the ressurection of the band in 1999 (with Craig Adams, bass leaving permanantly in 2002 to join The Alarm), soon adding Mick Brown, drums (of Red Lorry Yellow Lorry) and Simon Hinkler, guitar (of Artery/Pulp). Aside from Hussey, the line-up has changed several times during the years, and the band has been dusted up from a state of dormancy once or twice. The backbone of the band's catalogue consists of seven main albums (Gods Own Medicine, Children, Carved in Sand, Masque, Neverland, Blue, Aura and God Is a Bullet) with several complementing albums, compilations and other miscellaneous releases also in existence.

The Mission attracted a faithful following band of fans, known a 'Eskimos'. Gigs typically had an energetic mosh pit (prior to the term being coined) sustained by a lot of Eskimos.

Andy Cousin, bass

In October 2007, Wayne Hussey made it clear that the band will play it's final gigs ever in feruary and march 2008 ending with a blast, playing 4 nights in London's Shepherds Bush Empire. The band is going to play the entire first 4 albums one each night.


2) Mission is also the name of a Japanese pop group produced by Avex. The members are Oki Yayoi, Satou Chizuko, Hashimoto Mami, Miura Eriko, and Orita Miyuki. They only produced four singles between 1998 and 1999, with no album ever released. Oki Yayoi and Orita Miyuki went on to become members of Hipp's.
