PRAYING MANTIS
MERTON MANOR CLUB, LONDON

What a good way to warm up for another year full of more gigs than with a low key warm up Praying Mantis gig before they head off to Japan for gigs in Tokyo and Osaka.

Japan has been kind to Praying Mantis over the years. Whilst the rest of the world was getting drenched in a sludge of grunge in the early nineties, the Japanese market was lapping up a trio of albums; ‘Predator In Disguise’, ‘A Cry For The New World’ and ‘To The Power Of Ten’ which kept the band very much alive.

Doesnt time fly? We will be for sure tomorrow heading off to Japan! Many thanks again to all that came and supported us at Wimbledon & London, we hope to see you on the road soon. xx

A huge and heartfelt “Thank you” to all our friends and fans, who made it to our two shows this weekend – it’s very much appreciated, and we know the efforts many of you went to in order to be there. You’ve helped set us up very nicely for our Japanese gigs. We’ll certainly be looking at some more British shows in the next few months … it’s always a rare pleasure to meet up with you all. Keep rocking, and see you out on the road !
