Wire Tickets
Wire Concert Tickets
Get Wire tickets and tap into the artistic aggression of hard rock/metal. Wire is one of those groups whose legacy and influence far outweigh their tangible achievements. Their 1977 debut album Pink Flag was a roughly produced, earthy collection of short punk songs, very typical of the era, and reasonably well-received by the music press. By the time their third album Document and Eyewitness was released in 1979, critics' opinions changed, with reviews describing them as "disjointed" and "almost unlistenable".
After this inconsistent start Wire subsequently developed and progressed into a more mature style of songwriting leading to experimentation with synthesizers, unorthodox arrangements and an altogether more thoughtful way of playing. Well-known performers who have cited Wire as being influential in their own music have included R.E.M, The Manic Street Preachers, The Cure and Blur.
Whilst acknowledging their punk origins, the band had a curious way of distancing themselves from their cruder, earlier sound—a Wire tribute band called The Ex-Lion Tamers were hired as Wire's opening act during live performances. The Ex-Lion Tamers played covers of early Wire material whilst the real band showcased new material. Over the ensuing years, the band has continued to record and perform sporadically and their material is frequently covered by other bands. Witness the dynamic genre performed live when you buy Wire tickets from TicketSmarter.
