Shenker’s Temple return to UK
9 shows confirmed in January 2016

Michael Schenker’s Temple Of Rock will tour the UK in January next year, they’ve confirmed.
The guitarist is joined by singer Doogie White and keyboardist Wayne Findlay plus ex-Scorpions bassist Francis Buchholz and drummer Herman Rarebell. The band last month released third album Spirit On A Mission.
Schenker recently admitted he’d begun enjoying touring for the first time in his career and added: “People are passing away, like Gary Moore, Ronnie James Dio, Johnny Winter and so many people. It’s going to be just a memory, this incredible era that has lasted 50 years now.
“I just want to put this to the foreground one more time.”
Tickets go on sale on May 1 (Friday) via TheGigCartel.com.

Not only is one-time online news editor Martin an established rock journalist and drummer, but he’s also penned several books on music history, including SAHB Story: The Tale of the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, a band he once managed, and the best-selling Apollo Memories about the history of the legendary and infamous Glasgow Apollo. Martin has written for Classic Rock and Prog and at one time had written more articles for Louder than anyone else (we think he's second now). He’s appeared on TV and when not delving intro all things music, can be found travelling along the UK’s vast canal network.
