Wow pity I'm not there this year saw the Stranglers back in the late '70s several times in Bristol/Bath but (see below) Jet Black now 70!!!! fair play mate.
In 2008, Jean-Jacques Burnel has made comments in interviews which indicate that the band could be heading into semi-retirement after the completion of their European tour in 2009.
He said: "Our drummer Jet Black is 70 now. It blows me away, the fact that he continues to play 90-minute sets. He's been unwell a couple of times and his drum tech has stood in at a few festivals, but if he was permanently out, well, I don't know what I'd do, actually. We could still record, but this is our last big tour, I think.
"I think all things have to come to an end at some point, although we'll do one more album. I would love to think it will be the most beautiful album we've done.
Also looks like the last big tour

Great news, I would have seen them in 2006 at the "Gosforth Gathering" which was supposed to have taken place in August at the Gosforth racecourse, this was organised by "Tentrock" unfortunately the company was run by thieves who ran off with my cash!

Twisted Wheel?
I sincerely hope they are named after this place and that their music is a tribute to an amazing place from my youth.
