Yes I'm talking about you Mr Kaufman !
Remember, it's the squeaky wheel that gets the grease !
Oh, for heaven's sake, a couple of days of not checking the board and you're on my back already! Of course I want a UK (and/or European) tour. And a new album, and new material, and the lost TV appearances, and whatever else.
But it's hard to see a UK tour happening any time soon; and if it does, it doubt it'll be because of your squeekiness.
With all the hassle of travel (especially with equipment), and people maybe not having as much spending money these days, it's hard to see how a tour could be made feasible. And they seem plenty busy as it is - presumably they're at least as busy as they want to be.
Maybe if someone could put up enough money to make a "private party" worthwhile... or knows exactly the right people to properly organize and promote it and get the right venues... and maybe find other reasons for them to want to tackle it... but even then it sounds like a big ask.
Really, at the moment I'm just delighted they're willing and able to keep it going at all.
So whilst a UK tour would be great, I suspect it's pure fantasy. But please prove me wrong!!!
