[kj] KJ 2008

[Mik]

Well the reaction I get from almost everyone in the UK is "Killing who?" so
it's hardly surprising.

  I'm guessing at this point in time they're not even known anymore in the
U.S. 

 

  Is it the U.S. doesn't like Killing Joke, or that the U.S. doesn't even
know Killing Joke 

at this point? I've seen virtually nothing (read: zero**) for promotion and
advertising since

around "Democracy", either whenever a cd's released or when they tour (i
live in Los 

Angeles).

  As for radio play, i've only rarely heard them 

 on satellite radio and then only 1 song: 'Seeing Red,'

 and once heard 'The Death And Resurrection Show.'

 

  Maybe no one wants to take a chance anymore and try to resell the band
anew to the

U.S., and just plan only on reselling them where they're already known?
I.d.k., but if even

i can burn a pop-friendly / newbie-friendly KJ cd and have people ask me for
a copy, then 

I'm sure it is possible to promote them here (u.s.).

  

**1 or 2 sightings of promos are

   only exceptions that go to 

   prove the point.

Oliver , its nothing to do with Jaz hating the U.S.A , its the other way
around. Killing Joke didn't get enough punters through the door last time to
justify going there . Its more of a case of the U.S not liking KJ, than the
other way around

And the angels eat their grapes
