[kj] forthcoming gigs

[Alex Smith]

By "drawing a line under everything" they'd previously done, is that to say that they're done with playing it ala Bowie's SOUND + VSION tour stunt (which he, of course, later re-negged on)? I do hope not. While there are a clutch of KJ tracks that probably don't need to be played again anytime soon (I'm sure each of you have your own recommendations), I shudder at such declarative statements. I actually was in attendance at a Peter Murphy solo show some years back and the band chuckling started the intro to "Bela Lugosi's Dead," only for Peter to wave it off, saying "YOU'LL NEVER HEAR THAT ONE FROM ME AGAIN." Cut to about six or seven years later, and there's Peter pawing on the pancake makeup and writhing around screeching "BELLLLLLAAAAAAA'S UNDEEEEEEAAAAAAD" yet again (as I believe he'll be doing YET AGAIN at the Coachella fest.)

Never say never.

more of an excuse than an explanation, i'd say! if they don't play any
old stuff ever again i'll believe it.
