Verbal Warning guitarist Tone Deff is to leave the band after our biggest ever gig - the main stage of the Great British Alternative Festival at Skegness Butlins in October.

Tone has recently linked up with local David Bowie tribute band Rebel Rebel and has elected to sign for them full-time, leaving us a hole to fill on guitar.

He will certainly bow out on a high with VW high up on a bill and sharing a stage with the likes of The Stranglers, Cockney Rejects, Sham 69, Tom Robinson Band, The Exploited, and the Adicts

Auditions are starting for a new axeman to take over our busy schedule post Butlins - contact us via our facebook page messaging if you want to put yourself forward for the job!
