[Goodbye]

Put it to you this way...
It's FAR to small for the croud this guy will pull...
And those who attend NEED to be comfortable at this kind of gig...
Besides anyone within earshot of the bar aint gonna hear a thing...
If you know someone in the band BBoy perhaps it's somthing they should know...

[krystal]

He's out. There are posters for Albert Lee round town at the moment which made me all confused. Again.

 

[Goodbye]

Yeah, I'm all confused too...

If it's Arthur Lee from LOVE then it's a shure thing, up there with seeing Brian Wilson, espesh in the Whelans...wow

But...

If its Albert Lee ex Eric Clapton, then he can shove his AOR gig up his hole!!

See, definitely Albert Lee IS playing cos I have seen posters with my female eyes. But co-incidentally Arthur Lee is playing gigs in London round about the same time, cos the boyfriend is going, so it wouldn't be outside the bounds of possibility that he'd play here as well.

And wave a gun around.

Lolo - heres the INFO:

ARTHUR LEE, the legendary frontman of 1960's West Coast psychedelic folksters LOVE, is set to undertake a major tour of Europe and the UK from mid-May.

The tour will kick off in Denmark on May and reach the UK with a show at Glasgow King Tut's on June 4.

As revealed last week on NME.COM, Lee has been rehearsing with his long-term backing band, the LA based trio Baby Lemonade. He added: "I plan to use live horns and strings on this tour as well as record my new album which will probably be in Europe." Lee
was released from a Californian jail last December after serving six years of an 11-year sentence. In 1996, he was convicted of possession of a firearm by an ex-felon and also grossly negligent discharge of a firearm for allegedly shooting a gun in the air during a dispute with a neighbour.

This is most true. I have talked with Mike from the fine band Baby Lemonade (who are playing as LOVE with Arthur) and he said he's looking forward to playing Dublin. (I am from Ireland and I'm currently out here in California for a few years). I also told Arthur Lee that he would be very welcome in Dublin - anyone who is lucky enough to go to the show.....give him the best audience he's ever played to. It is going to be fantastic. Mike mentioned that there was a problem with the original booking of the gig...but I hope that's sorted out now. He's doing this tour first, but then, later in the Autumn/Winter to celebrate FOREVER CHANGES 35th year in release, there is a plan of special performances of FOREVER CHANGES in its entirety...complete with orchestration and special guests, recreating "live" for the first time ever one of the best pop albums ever made.

Shurly this should be a vicar st gig...
What with the size of the band, the size of the audiance...
A gig like this would be ruined in whelans with the amound of tickets greedy companys put on sale...
