The Summer Gigs Thread has gone missing.
Why can't ALL the people "in-the-know" keep their information to themselves until all is confirmed and an official anouncement is made.
I'm sure i'm not the only fan pissed of with this one-upmanship Ingrid. Why did you publicly post the 6 or 7 European dates that you heard from Joey? To promote your site? This is the same as the St. Patrick's Night farce.
The fans will get their hopes up and get let down again when provisional dates get changed or do not materialise.

I'm sorry about the thread going missing for a few hours. For technical reasons it had to be hidden away until I had access to a real computer and could selectively trim things.
And yes, the post that got trimmed was Ingrid's with prospective dates.

Well, personally I prefer some advance warning, as long as it's with the addition of "we're hoping to..." or something. It does get your hopes up but at least you're warned and can be careful about booking other stuff. This is holiday time when lots of things need to be booked so any hints help - me, at least. But I wouldn't buy any flights yet!

I heard The Pogues will be playing in Boston on Monday, since Shane will be running the Boston Marathon.

Takes a while for the hangover to wear off, to shake the cobwebs out of the laptop, to check email, to watch some YouTube video, to drink a Monster and make some coffee, etc. You get the idea.
BUT!
On the front page Right Now are two confirmed dates including links to the venues/festivals AND information about when the tickets go on sale AND where. Zowie!

And, as the auto-translate for the Berlin website insists:
"The Irish folk-punk cult band of the movement of the 80s is back! Modern world brings the guys-drinking in early August this year after two dates in Germany."
YAY!!

Cult band? You guys are in a cult? I bet Terry is the leader. He is, isn't he? All that talk about the Seventh Seal, and UFOs, guns, the New World Order...
