SFX To Present Roxy Music Tour

SFX has added the reunion of Roxy Music to its list of tours this year.

At a packed press conference at London's Savoy in the Strand, original band members Bryan Ferry, Andy Mackay and Phil Manzanera talked about their plans for a final one-off tour – 18 years after they split. Founding member Brian Eno, now a successful record producer, will not join the lineup.
