[kj] KJ tours, the "book", etc.

[LONESTYLE at AOL.COM]

I have to agee with Alex. Ever since I have been on The Gathering for these  
years now we heard KJ rumors about  them touring the states. I would  not hold 
my breath on Jaz for he says one thing and then things completely  turn out 
different. I have heard that KJ are going to tour this year from  a good source 
but I would just wait until it is written in blood.
 
The Good, The Bad & The Queen are not bad. But Carbon Silcon is the  shit! 
Great tunes and great lyrics!
 
Cheers,

As sad  as a statement it is to make, one should approach each and every 
rumour about  forthcoming Killing Joke activity with a herculean dose of 
skepticism. The  band (and Jaz especially) is renowned for having the best of 
intentions about  bringing plans to fruition, but often fails to close the circle. 
There's more  than enough evidence to support this (from GEMS OF POWER through the 
much  ballyhooed re-releases on EMI). I suppose part of what makes Killing 
Joke so  exciting is their dogged resistance to adhering to conventional 
protocol, but  that's also been their undoing.

I've heard rumors about a U.S. tour as  well, but I wouldn't get too excited 
about it until the tickers were in my  hand (and *EVEN THEN* I'd be cautious). 
The `Joke were supposed to play SxSW  last year (rumor had it). That didn't 
happen. When I wrote that piece on them  for MTVNews back in May of `06, they 
were saying that they'd be touring the  States by that Summer (that now being 
LAST summer).

I know Raven has a  full schedule, but then he always does. Jaz is probably 
back ensconced in his  classical composer mode. Geordie's probably fishing and 
leering at young  girls.  

In other news, word of Joel G's book has reached  Blabbermouth. I doubt 
certain folks will be  pleased.

Also,  has anyone heard the Good, The Bad & the Queen yet? I borrowed a copy 
of  the album off a co-worker (to rip to my iTunes). If I had to describe it 
in  one word, that word would be:  
Bor....zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
