After his appearance, Glenn will travel to London where he will play the Shepherd's Bush Empire on March 25. This is the rescheduled show from October last year.

Glenn Hughes' latest solo album, "Music for the Divine", will receive its long-awaited U.S. release on January 30, 2007 via Demolition Records.
