Marillion performed with original frontman Fish for the first time in 19 years this past Sunday, August 26th, at the Hobble On The Cobbles event in Aylesbury, England. Fish insists the performance was a one-off and that there won’t be a reunion tour:
(The gig) was just five guys doing a one-off and having a brilliant time together. It was great. It was just a load of fun. “But nothing should be read into it. I think it just proves that we’re actually friends. There’s always been these rumours that there’s some sort of animosity between us but that went a long, long time ago.
