Due to illness, all dates on the Rhino's Revenge UK Tour from Jan 14th to Feb 6th 2022, are cancelled.

Rhino and Richard Newman tested positive for Covid-19, Rhino has struggled to recover ever since and symptoms have now affected his voice. For the sake of his own health and the safety of others, the tour cannot now go ahead. There are no plans at the moment to reschedule all shows.

 

Although medical advice is that Rhino should rest until the end of january, his recovery from Covid-19 continues apace and he has been given the all clear to rock again from February. “I’m utterly gutted about the tour, but these three shows are just the tonic and I am so excited about being able to get back in the saddle.”

 

As a consolation Rhino's first 16-track live album called "Charge" is available now from his website http://www.rhinosrevenge.com/shop/index.php
