Took in Afro Bowie celebration of his bday last night in DTLA. Vernon Reid, Angelo, Norwood, Saul Williams, Kamasi, Justin Warfield, and Tony Austin on drums. Just insane. Angelo was such a fit for the Bowie tunes and Saul killed on I'm Afraid of Americans. Everyone had such a good time. Great show

Great line-up of musicians! Sounds like you had a fun night.

So jealous! Wasn't Chris Dowd from Fishbone in the lineup too? Glad you had a good time, SR.

Yes. Justin mentioned that he tested positive for the covid that morning.

First half of the year comes full for me:

Jane's Addiction, Stone Temple Pilots, The Winery Dogs, Los Fabulosos Cadillacs twice (I know @thoreau likes them), Alcest, Godsmack, Alborosie, Snarky Puppy

Love and Rockets’ looming reunion will include more than just the band’s appearance at Cruel World in the Los Angeles area this May, as the trio today announced four more concerts in the western U.S. in the days that follow the festival appearance.

The band — Daniel Ash, David J and Kevin Haskins — will follow that May 20 slot at Cruel World with concerts in Oakland, California; Salt Lake City, Utah; Portland, Oregon; and Seattle, Washington, according to a post on the group’s Instagram. Ticket details are not yet known.

See full dates below.

Love and Rockets last performed live in 2008 with a couple warmup shows and a trio of festival slots, including at Coachella and Lollapalooza. The band’s last album was 1998’s Lift, and its last tour followed that in 1999.

Bauhaus began its latest reunion with a trio of shows in Hollywood in late 2019, then continued with a pandemic-delayed string of headlining dates and festival appearances, including at the inaugural Cruel World festival — which itself was delayed from 2020 to 2022.

The band even released its first new song in 14 years.

In late August last year, however, Bauhaus canceled the remainder of its reunion dates in North America as frontman Peter Murphy entered rehab ” to attend to his health and well-being,” leaving fans wondering if the rest of the band would simply continue on as Love and Rockets.



Love and Rockets 2023 tour dates
May 20: Cruel World Festival, Pasadena, CA
May 21: Fox Theater, Oakland, CA
May 24: Sandy Amphitheater, Salt Lake City, UT
May 25: Roseland Theater, Portland, OR
May 28: Moore Theater, Seattle, WA

Fantastic. I'm frozen out of Tampa (amongst other places).

The Cure, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Fever Ray, Placebo, Sisters of Mercy (wince), Depeche Mode, Suede, Mr Bungle, Tori Amos...

Saw Inspiral Carpets Sunday night in a tiny venue. So good, back to 1990! I never realised the original drummer took his own life in 2016 because he had really bad tinnitus.

Off to see Blur do a warm up gig on the 26th at Wolves Civic. Amazed I got tickets as they sold out in like 10 minutes. Think they're doing two nights at Wembley so seeing them in a 3,500 capacity venue should be great.
