Then spill, man! Pretty perleeeze....

And thanks, Paul, was worried I'd probably offend someone somewhere, so glad someone agrees with me! :D But I'd rather know. :) If you can't tell us Sandy, can you at least tell us when we can at least expect to find out something more. I have some pretty big upcoming finance issues and need to budget. Would hate to miss something unnecessarily ;)

Or is this all just too many questions? :oops: :oops:


To be honest, don't know anything about when and where the gigs/festivals will happen, but I was thinking much the same thing about Glenn Hughes. - I'd much rather see Fish perform a full show with his band. - Not decided yet whether I want to endure Mr Hughes. :?
there are of course the three warm up 100% Fish gigs, without GlennHughes to consider..

Several formats for the Glenn Hughes gigs have been aired, and its expected, but in no way official, that it will be a half set by Fish, half set by Glenn, in which ever order, then a combined set with both bands doing some numbers... But, as i said, nothing official has been said on the matter, therefore it would be unwise to speculate until such times as it does become official, but its a kind of standard format done at most shared gigs... But
I wouldn't be surprised if there were some surprises in store for the shared gigs, but again, thats speculation....

I saw Mr Hughes at Child rocks at indigo, with the multi band format, and well, he did a great appearance.

Unfortunately the combined gigs clash with holidays so I cant make it to them, but the warm up gigs might be possible...

As for anything else Fish wise this year, from his comments on Facebook, unless his plans there wont be much touring or gigging, As he works on his cunning plan and a new album... But then again, the best laid plans of mice and men..

Thank you for complimenting us on being Children ! Nothing wrong with being young at heart.
Sharon its a good question. I'm hoping that they have equal billing regarding time on stage, lights and sound.
I know Glenn Hughes from Purple and BCC but I dont know any of his other stuff.
I sincerely hope that Fish doesnt just get a 40 minute support slot as we have just bought tickets for Shepherds Bush

Thanks for the info.

I can't do the Southern gigs - though would have liked to - as too far for me to travel so was looking at Manchester, but that's including Glenn Hughes. :shock:
