Barrow Raiders have announced a 'chart topping band' will headline a concert in tribute to Hairy Bikers star, Dave Myers, following his death in February.
On Saturday, June 8, as part of ‘Dave Day’ celebrations, up to 10,000 are expected to journey in convoy to Barrow from London.
A tribute concert will be held at the Northern Competitions Stadium at Craven Park, through the day and evening.
A spokesperson for Barrow Raiders said: ‘’We have a chart-topping band already lined up but we are seeking other bands to help fill the day and evening with the expectation that you will be performing 45 minute slots.
‘’If any bands are interested, or you want to tag bands who might be, then please either leave your details in the comments or email sneale6310@hotmail.com or lorrainehunt81@btinternet.com or send a message to our Facebook page
‘’It promises to be a fantastic day with the council and Barrow BID also arranging events in and around the Town Hall and Forum 28.’’
Dave, who was part of the motorcycle-riding cooking duo with Si King for more than 20 years, died from cancer in February at the age of 66.
