hi dane,         (this is being posted to the list,as well as privately,in
case anyone else
wanted to know..sorry all.)

im i philadelphia,pa.
here is what i know.
Jim lasko in cleveland is coordinating a possible US tour in mid july.the
management is trying to bypass
all the proffessionals on this one,and depend on the fans to arrange
things.the band has lost much money on previous tours due tue being scalped
by promoters and booking agents and ticketing agents,
in addition to the high cost of playing internationally,all of which im
sure you can imagine for yourself.

the band wants a guarrantee<sp?>  of a certain monetary intake,1/2 down.
they are also looking for people to handle catering and other details.
basically,people in various cities are to make an offer,and it would be
taken from there.

to the best of my knowledge,they only intended to play the ohio and
greatlakes areas,and possibly the northeast coast. they would be coming
from austrailia,possibly,(hopefully), so perhaps a sanfran show wouldnt be
impossible if someone could make it happen.

i know people in NYC who are trying to work something out,and there are a
few in ohio and surrounds.
i am/was doing philadelphia.  the problem is, people are concerned with the
recent thing about alan davey
and all. and the wires are quiet.... no one i know has heard a single
confirmed date,and there is no news.
i'll get around to calling doug s. soon,if i dont hear anything,but i try
to avoid that.

so enuff babble...        if ya wanna get involved (things will straighten
out soon,im sure),
i guess ya should e-mail jim lasko.      jmfinity at harborcom.net
he's the coordinator, a nice guy.

ya might find some more info on the welcome to the future site.
