Low and Sweet Orchestra might have played Detroit, but without me. They went on a three-month-long tour round the country at the beginning of 1997 on which neither Dermot nor I, nor I think Kieran except for maybe a couple of dates closer to home, could accompany them.

I saw them at a Borders book store in Pittsburgh. I was still in High School and was not permitted entrance to the venue they were playing later that night because i was not 21. I cut school and walked a few miles and heard about a half hour set. I had just discovered the Pogues and saw in the paper that a band with a former Pogue would be playing in Pittsburgh. Alas you were not there James, I think your wife had just given birth. I do not know why they performed because the show was not broadcast on the radio, and that nights show was sold out. However it was a nice excuse to cut school.

Thanks.

At the end of the week we're going to try and figure out who's in the country during February.

Just listened to the songs on Myspace, and love them. A quick question, did The Low and Sweet Orchestra play Detroit? I am arranging a trip to CA soon to see some friends, and hope that it can coincide with a gig.

I'm packing my bags.

you make a persuasive case

How about touring Melbourne - Australia......
