Where have they been you say? From the &#8216;mugshots&#8217; on the right you might assume &#8216;jail&#8217;?! But before their recent hiatus they were pretty much selling out huge venues all over the world. That&#8217;s right, although we love them here the music scene can be quite fickle and they had gathered such an army of fans (1.4 million likes on Facebook so far) not only in The States (well done boys!) but also in the far east (?!) that they were almost constantly on tour. No wonder they needed a holiday&#8230;<br \/>\nNow they&#8217;re all rested and back with that cheeky, infectious sound that has won people over time and time again. Many years ago, I witnessed them causing an outbreak of insanity in the crowd at T in the Park, in the middle of the day. And I couldn&#8217;t help but join in. So I&#8217;m delighted that I will be able to celebrate my birthday week with them at The Barras (hurrah!) next March. That&#8217;s gonna be a pretty sweet (and sweaty) birthday party.<br \/>\n<span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kcrw.com\/music\/programs\/mb\/mb130730franz_ferdinand\/hd-showcase\">Here<\/a><\/span>\u00a0they are treating LA&#8217;s KCRW radio station listeners to some early morning tomfoolery.<br \/>\nCome and dance with us (Michael) at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.franzferdinand.com\/\">https:\/\/www.franzferdinand.com<\/a><br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, Franz Ferdinand are back.
