The Boomtown Rats Booking Agency Profile

Book The Boomtown Rats for your next corporate event, function, or private party.
The Boomtown Rats were once a myth that circulated for countless millennia on the winds of ancient Ireland. Bob Geldof, Pete Briquette, Garry Roberts and Simon Crowe had their hearts and souls touched by this legend as a result of the whispers, a thousand incantations and puckered lips of Ireland's young.
These men would become the embodiment of that tale, allowing it to engulf them and consume them. Unfortunately, the group adopted the moniker and persona of The Boomtown Rats in homage to the ancient whispering gods, setting the stage for themselves, the residents of Boomtown and the pathologically restless.
The band's next UK and Ireland tour was announced and Back to Boomtown: Classic Rats Hits, a new compilation CD, would serve as its support. At the Brentwood Festival, the group gave a performance and Geldof sparked controversy by criticizing the crowd. For their first studio album since In the Long Grass, the band went back to the recording studio to create new songs. They unveiled Citizens of Boomtown, a brand-new album, along with the first tune "Trash Glam Baby.".

Also, their speaking fee might be different than the fee shown for the cost to perform or to just appear. Popularity, career stage, along with current demand will cause fluctuations in their speaking price as well. The final booking price may be more than what is shown, but you should at least have a budget within that range for them to consider an appearance, performance or speaking engagement.
