Yes of course there will, but they'll be announced once all those over
eager UK fans have already bought continental tickets.

This happens every time. Strange pattern, eh ?

Nice little earner....

Well I can't wait for the UK gigs to be announced.... I am heading for the continent!

not likely there will be UK shows this time..

I hope not because I'll be obliged to go and I don't want to see this particular dead horse flogged again

I remember why I stopped posting here now

Would be great to see the girls in action again

I never suggested you should stop posting, and surely my choice is just as valid as yours

You don't have to be so negative either- lots of people will be seeing SoM for the first time and it will be nice to hear some new live recordings.

I'm not stupid enough to expect a new record though

Well that's good and all that but, I'm just kinda tired by these 'Sisters of Mercy' (lower case 'o' and no 'The') so we all make our own choices.
Please enjoy (try and stop yourself) have a great gig and see something 'really' special.

Don't see 'em then. Vote with your feet !

Vote with your feet !

I'd rather vote with my feet by being able to go to a show on this island. Better than having to vote with airmiles!

I think the Silver Bullet UK shows were added after the mainland shows last time, so there's still hope.

It would be really weird if they didn't even do one show in London?????????

Even a show in Nottingham. Rock City seemed packed out during the last 2 major tours.

Here's hoping

Tune! Saw that comment ad have been uploading my Mansun collection to my iPod since. Six is an excellent album and I know of no bands that sound like this now.

Maybe if anyone else gets to meet Chris or Ben (or Von) at one of the gigs, they could ask them????????

Will try tomorrow in Atlanta

Nice one, thanks!

Is it possible that could be vetoing the UK because of the smoking ban in public places.

Nope; smoking ban in Holland as well.

Is it possible that Our fearless leader! could be vetoing the UK because of the smoking ban in public places.

He just doesn't love us anymore

Can't think why

The ban was already in effect in Scotland when they played Glasgow on the Silver Bullet tour.

once said:

"We don't often get sensible offers to play in the UK, so most years we just play on the mainland, with the occasional exotic detour."

also said:

" I don't enjoy British shows as a rule because British audiences are strange."

How many people get really excited when they see someone posting to this thread thinking they might be bringing news on the UK front?

Opps. I have no news. Sorry.
