Re: Vampires UK tour dates just announced

Tried in vain to get tickets for Swansea over the last few days, but all I got was error messages when using the presale link. Tried via the general sale this morning, waited in a queue for 20 minutes only to then be told it was ‘Sold Out’ (or is it?). Pretty frustrating really. Guess I’ll just have...

Re: Detroit Stories on picture disc coming

It sounds like there is also a Paranormal picture set coming out at the same time and that there will also be a box set that includes both the new releases and a picture disc of the previous Paranormal Evening release. It may be that they have leftover copies of the latter and are bundling it in wit...

Re: The New PopOff Books

Have done a small write-up on these books (to go alongside my thoughts on the original publication) on my website here: https://www.welcometomynightmare.co.uk/my-collection/books/ You can currently buy the original Deluxe Edition book for just £20 (it used to be £60), which is much better value than...

Cool Vid - The graphics are interesting but,
please - as a Bonus - not during the "Live" Vid?
I did like AC referencing his "Detroit Wheels"!
No, it definitely doesn't feature during the documentary itself, it was simply a video used to promote the 12" release.

Re: Touring band to feature on next album!

He also attends important shows (he was apparently at the first couple of UK shows last month for example) and is generally around whenever a new tour/show is launched. Yes. I spent the Swansea show stood next to Shep, who was on the sound board. He was very quick to intervene when the vocal issues...

Re: David Libert - Rock and Roll Warrior

I got a signed one posted to a friend in New York who forwarded it on to me. That's how I got to to read it quite early. My order was confirmed on March 8th, didn't get an email saying it had been shipped until March 24th, didn't arrive in New York until April 13th. Just checked the dates as it fel...

Re: Setlist

With such interesting songs dropped (He’s back, Go to hell, Fallen in love etc) I feel strange for what to expect for the setlist. We have to wait of course and I hope they add some songs. I hope not to get such a cut setlist on Greece as he plays as special guest for the Scorpions.. Fallen In Love...

Re: Setlist

In fairness, the castle stage / show was almost brand new when he toured the UK in 2019. It then got mothballed during Covid so hasn’t actually had much use. No surprise, therefore, to see little changes to what is a really good production (in my opinion). Exactly. This is effective the same tour, ...

Re: Setlist

Slightly disappointed with this. Going off the set-list and the stage set up from Youtube videos, this is basically the same show as the last UK Tour; albeit with a shorter set. I was hoping for a few more songs he didn't play last time and a revamp of the stage set. The other bands on the bill (Th...

Re: Titanic Overture

Awesome response, thanks Dennis!

Yes, it was a real shame about Nobody Likes Me, but at least we have the demo on Old School and the great rendition on PFY NY with Nick and the guys!
