Suede would be playing together again

Following persistent rumors, Saul Galpern, the boss of the band’s former label, Nude Records, officially announced on 15 January 2010 that Suede would be playing together again. “It’s a one-off gig,” he explained about the show, which featured the band’s second incarnation. The band performed at the Royal Albert Hall in London as part of the 2010 Teenage Cancer Trust shows on 24 March 2010. Anderson described the comeback show as his favorite gig and the pinnacle of his 20-year career. Despite the gig initially being billed as a one-night-only reformation, when questioned on the German radio station MotorFM in early February, Anderson refused to confirm that the band would not continue. The band subsequently announced two UK “warm-up” gigs prior to the Royal Albert Hall show, at the 100 Club in London and The Ritz in Manchester. The three gigs were well received by critics from various newspapers.
