Alright, c’mon butt – ready for a night of absolute chaos, comedy, and classic Madchester tales? Because BEZ – the maraca-shaking legend of Happy Mondays, the madman behind the moves, the bee-saving, Big Brother-winning, rave-era icon – is coming to Tenby for one night only! 🔥
And trust us… it’s gonna be BUZZIN’ 🐝
📍 De Valence Pavilion, Tenby
🗓 Friday 5th December 2025
🕢 Doors open: 7:30PM

📖 Buzzin’ – The Book available now
🧠 THE NINE LIVES OF A HAPPY MONDAY
You’ve seen him dance. You’ve seen him wobble through the jungle. You’ve probably shouted “YES BEZ!” at your telly at some point.
Now’s your chance to hear it straight from the man himself.
This is Bez’s In Conversation Tour 2025 – a chance to get up close and personal with the original freaky dancer, as he dives into the madness of his life so far. Expect proper tales from the frontlines of the Madchester movement, eye-popping stories from backstage and beyond, and maybe even a few political rants (remember when he ran for Parliament? Yep. That happened).
From acid house to organic honey farming, and everything in between – Bez has lived a life louder than a speaker stack at Spike Island.
And now he’s telling all – no filter, no script, no clue what’ll happen next. Tidy!
📖 BUZZIN’ – THE BOOK
To go along with the tour, Bez has dropped a brand-new book: “Buzzin’: The Nine Lives of a Happy Monday” – and yes, it’s every bit as wild as it sounds.
Inside? You’ll find:
🌀 Stories of growing up in Salford
🍄 Trippy tales from the acid house revolution
🎤 The true story of Happy Mondays – drugs, fallouts, madness
🐝 His mission to save the bees (for real!)
🪩 Post-rave politics, celeb telly, and surviving against all odds
Bez might not be a rock star in the traditional sense – but he is a cult hero, a survivor, and a one-man party machine who accidentally became a national treasure. Only in the UK, mun.
💬 WHAT TO EXPECT ON THE NIGHT
Think less “lecture” – more like a chat with your mate who’s done way too many things to be considered legal, sane, or sober.
✨ Proper stories
✨ Mad audience Q&A moments
✨ Unexpected insights from a surprisingly wise geezer
✨ Likely to go off-piste at least a dozen times
✨ A good old Tenby knees-up
If you’ve ever:
✅ Thrown shapes to Step On
✅ Lost a weekend to Hacienda bangers
✅ Wondered how he’s still alive
✅ Tried to dance like Bez after four pints and a Sambuca
…then this is your kind of night.
🎪 VENUE: DE VALENCE PAVILION, TENBY
Slap bang in the heart of Tenby, De Valence Pavilion is THE place to be this December. Forget the beach and the bucket hats – we’re trading sandcastles for stories and getting properly nostalgic with a man who practically invented British indie chaos.
And if you haven’t seen Bez in the flesh before, prepare yourself. He’s part rock ’n’ roll preacher, part stand-up comic, and part bee-whisperer. 🐝
🗣️ THE RIFF REPORT VERDICT
Look, you don’t need us to sell you this one. It’s BEZ, mun!
He’s lived through the actual 24 Hour Party People years, dodged death more times than a cartoon character, and somehow come out the other side as a clean-living, eco-loving legend with better stories than your da.
We’ve had gig reviews, band breakdowns, and festival survival guides. But this? This is storytelling from the dancefloor to the honey farm, and everything in between. 🎶🌼
Bez is a walking, talking time machine to one of the wildest eras in UK music history – and if you don’t come out of this show buzzing, check your pulse.
🎟️ TICKETS & INFO
🎫 Tickets available via Gigantic – don’t hang about!
📚 Grab the book Buzzin’ in all good bookshops – and maybe even a few ropey petrol stations

🔊 FINAL THOUGHT:
Bez didn’t just dance to the soundtrack of the ’90s – he was the soundtrack.
Now he’s got a mic in his hand instead of maracas… and it’s your turn to listen.
See you down the front, butt. Don’t be late – this’ll be one for the books. 🕺📖🔥
