Hi Folks...

Pierre Moerlen has dropped out from Gong's touring lineup "due to fatigue."  :(

New lineup will apparently be...

DAEVID ALLEN * GILLI SMYTH * DIDIER MALHERBE * MIKE HOWLETT
CHRIS TAYLOR (drums) * MARK HEWINS (guitar)

What's weird is that I went and checked out the Planet Gong newsgroup, and
saw this posting in French.   I can't really read French, but this appears
to confirm the situation with Moerlen, and furthermore appears to suggest
he's currently been replaced by Keith Bailey, who is only known to me as a
bass player (Here and Now, wasn't it?).  But 'batterie' is 'drums,' so I
guess he is also a drummer.  Interesting. I guess Pip Pyle isn't available
either.  So who is Chris Taylor??
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Pierre Moerlen était absent pour cause de maladie et c'est Keith Missile qui
s'est occuppé de la batterie. Keith est excellent à la basse, il l'est
beaucoup moins à la batterie!
