The reformed Specials have announced a Coventry homecoming show.

Tickets for the band's concert at the Ricoh Arena on May 15 will go on sale on Wednesday at 9am.

The '80s ska band confirmed their reformation earlier this month and have gigs lined up for London, Manchester, Newcastle, Sheffield, Birmingham and Glasgow.

Founding member Jerry Dammers has criticised the reunion, claiming that he was "driven out" of the project. He also said that the 2009 shows do not have his blessing.
