Ticket holders received a letter stating the reason for the postponement and that the show was, at this (that) time, going to be rescheduled in early 2003 and their tickets would be honored on that date. The big mystery is of course if this will mean additional US show dates when this occurs as to do a single show in Philly then just pack up and go back home would seem to be a bit spendy. That is unless of course there was some type of an insurance bond, rider etc., etc. which was in place at the time to take of any such unforeseen eventuality. In any case I am really begining to look forward to Extended Brooklyn Monster Dance Mix of Woolly Bully.

There are 5 terrestrial TV stations in the UK. All have a text information service, which has stuff like news, weather etc.. They are all similar in layout and all use "pages" of information which can be accessed via the TV remote control and displayed on the TV. The stations BBC1 and BBC2 use "Ceefax" text information service. The remaining stations (ITV, CH4 and CH5) use "Teletext" information service. I think that right anyway!
