Yeah no one seems to come from BS, could be something to do with it being a Barry stronghold

You know the regional names for chavs, like Kevins and Johns? In Stortford it was Barrys All I remember seeing in the late 90s were bazzed up Novas, and Fiestas with fat exhausts.

Turns out this is something I have completely missed out on my friend, I do apologise lol. However things may have changed linguistically, but the 'Barrys' are still the same

I'm not travelling this far to find out there's no gig. We need to know whether this tour is completely canceled or not.

In any case, rescheduled isn't the same as "cancelled"

It is if you live on the other side of the earth and can't make it to a rescheduled date!

No, cancelled is what they did in 2001, call off a whole tour without a good reason and any gigs to make up for it.

And I'm sure it's too early to tell how James will be feeling 4 days from now, they're probably hoping he'll be up for it by then, not deliberately making people wait!

I'm afraid it looks like they're going to hold on as long as they can to cancel (or not)- it's expensive to rearrange a gig, so they won't want to do it unless they absolutely have to.

Tim, are you already in the UK? Just wondering, although you probably know that Cambridge isn't far from London.

yea. Its obvious James wants to do the shows. Thats why the announcements are so late. They dont want to let people down and yet they get accused of not caring.

edit: sorry to go on but i've thought of something else...BSP showed up today so if they had no plans to do the london shows surely they would've told their support band?
