Wilko Johnson Confirms Comeback Tour Dates


. (Classic Rock) Wilko Johnson has confirmed his first tour since being given the all-clear from the cancer he thought would kill him. He'd already announced his first show would be a fundraiser for Addenbrooke's, the hospital that saved his life last year.

Now he's added a series of shows that includes a Teenage Cancer Trust benefit show with The Who and several festival appearances. Wilko last year told how he'd missed news about the success of Going Back Home, his album with Who frontman Roger Daltrey, saying:

"I was lying in a bed full of tubes and morphine. I remember people telling me, 'It's really selling,' and me going, 'Really good man,' - while not really quite aware of what was going on." See the dates here.
