The Rats have done a couple of festivals already but are preparing for shows at the London Palladium and other venues.

Mark Welch, the Boomtown Rats tour manager said: "We have a farm up the road where we record. We wanted to do a live rehearsal to an audience, and we thought what better place than Crawley.

"We have lots of shows coming up and we want to keep sharp and there is nothing like a live rehearsal."

The Rats, known for their classic songs I Don't Like Mondays, She's So Modern and Rat Trap, will play new material as well as their well-known numbers.
