    Maybe you should put quotes around "promoter", given that it's not been advertised anywhere, and folks are finding out about it here ... it's not even on the Button Factory website. :rolleyes:

    Can you relax on the promoter crap. I'm promoting the gig.the contract was signed on Monday and tickets went on sale on Tuesday.advertising will start next week.
    I am not a promoter!!I am a fan of the band who put his money where his mouth us and got the band to play here.I'm taking a financial risk and you should be grateful they're playing here. But if you bought a ticket I'm grateful so thanks.
    It's going to be a great gig.

    Do we have any fans here? Of course most of you guys will know them for Cult of Personality but their first two albums are brilliant, and the others are good as well. Really under-rated band IMO.
    Brilliant band. Not under-rated at all. Under-known!

    Stumbled across this purely by accident.
    Huge fan of the band, fair play for getting them over.

    Looking forward to the gig...

    Last night's gig in San Francisco is on Yahoo. Probably the deadest crowd I've ever seen at a gig. And what the hell is Corey Glover wearing?

    EDIT - Having watched bits of this, i can see why the crowd were nearly asleep. Plenty of self-indulgent wankery going on. Just play some damn songs.

    Apologies for bumping this thread but.....


    I see living colour are back on a European tour later this year....but no Irish dates listed. So much for the last gigs being rescheduled.

    Of all the Chris Cornell tributes so far, this one really stands out-just brilliant.
    I was unaware they were even still together ....:o
    (apologies to you hardcore fans ;-) )

    Saw the Chris Cornell tribute and new album release date alright. Still doesn't make it any less irritating that they're ignoring Ireland in their tour. Again.

    Just turn on the radio and it’ll tell you why. When was the last time you heard Living Colour on the radio? When will you ever hear Living Colour, or bands like Fishbone on Irish radio? Not anytime soon.
    It’s pop and *a lot* of ****e over hyped indie rock.

    Maybe ticket sales for the gig that was called off were poor so the promoter didn't see it worthwhile to book them again?

    More than likely. A pity though. I'd love to see Fishbone here.

    Yup. Radio music is mostly tripe, and I sincerely doubt that is only an Irish radio issue. Plenty of bands not getting air play will tour here if they've enough of a fan base tho.
