So far this year Silo and Lobe did the German trek and Malka & Colin played in Tel Aviv and Berlin. There is more to come BUT people should understand that there is a process going on here and things do not always develop according to plan. Some dates in the USA and or Canada have been under discussion ever since last Autumns tour. Our European agency Planet Rock did quite a lot of work on trying to put something together for R&C/C&M this summer but felt that the thing was not coming together fast enough to be guaranteed (there are a lot of flaky people out there promoting gigs and you can end up losing quite a lot of money if they screw up - Planet Rock are extremely reliable and never proceed unless all bases are covered). So we are looking at next year for more of a swim tour. However one particular agency (voxman promotions) really wanted to put on Malka & Colin and was prepared to try to put together a few dates in August at very short notice.. This has resulted in the high probability that there will be 3 dates (12th Philly, 15th Knitting Factory NY & 20 or 21st Toronto) with the possibility of a couple more yet to be confirmed. This all is still subject to final confirmation but looks very likely at this point. Meanwhile Silo's two London dates last month produced a positive result in that they have been asked to play support to Godspeed You Black Emperor on their short UK tour - Tues 13th July - MANCHESTER - Hop & Grape, Wed 14th July - BRISTOL - Fleece & Firkin, Thurs 15th July & Fri 16th July - LONDON - Union Chapel - Please check with the website for updates SWIM HQ === >>> Craig Grannell / Wireviews >>> Visit Wireviews at: http://welcome.to/wireviews http://www.snub.dircon.co.uk/wirehome.html >>> wireviews@yahoo.com >>> _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
