Metamatic Forums News and Announcements John Foxx news Australian Tour...

There'll be at least one Kiwi there as well

Heh Rodney

I'll look forward to seeing you at the gig!!

I am wondering what live combo John is bringing down to Australia.

Is it just him and Louis with drum machines playing keyboards, tapes and loops etc, or is he bring a band downunder??

I'm 100% certain that it'll just be John and Louis, on recent form. Other people will know more about this than me, but I don't think John's toured with a full band for a very long time now.

Of course, now I've said this with such confidence, they'll go and reform Ultravox! especially for the occasion and bring the old gang along, with a full orchestra and a troupe of backing dancers. Only kidding...but one can hope .

As far as I'm aware, it'll just be John and Louis...

Rob

ROFLMAO!! What a vision you've created Gem!!

Thanx Rob. John & Louis and just fine. I am sure they will make enough noise and great music.

The tour at the moment thou is getting ZERO publicity. hopefully it will a little closer to the gig!!

I am so pumped for this show also. I'll also be at the Metro gig (my last show there was Sparks in 2001 and yep, it's a good venue).

You're right that there's been no publicity but I wasn't really expecting any. Hopefully the shows will sell out from word of mouth.

BRING IT ON
