when Mark canceled right before going onstage at the showbox in seattle on the last tour they promised to make it up within four months. what gives? I know he is a busy busy guy and understand he got sick, but I was so looking forward to this performance (with this band line-up) and was drinking beer in the bar next to Ben Shepard when the anouncement was made. I was so bummed and we have given our boy more than four months. I have heard Mark doesn't have any sentimental feeling torwards cold and rainy Seattle, but please come back! before this show, the twilight singers canceled and it was to be a Gutter Twins show. When greg came back around it was an awesome performance, but no Mark. Boo hoo hoo!

I don't think he has a permanent "Mark Lanegan Band", which makes it even more unlikely. I feel your pain, man. I had tickets to Mark in Chicago and QOTSA in Minneapolis - both were cancelled.

Yep and I'm still waiting for him to make up the Detroit show he cancelled. I won't hold my breath. If he comes, he comes, if not fuck 'im.

...and it's even worse for Seattle b/c you were already at the gig and ready to see him. At least for the Detroit show I knew ahead of time...

to make it worse...they didn't cancel till after I was drunk - the opening band sucked, and so did nick olervini's (sp)solo stuff... at least in my opinion from this show. opening for Lanegan is a difficult slot to fill. Shelly seems to be a great back up singer, and pretty too, oh what did I miss! I have never seen Mark with a second singer, although on his records they always sound killer.

BTW, I thought Nick kicked ass when I saw him <trying> to open for Mark @ the Showbox...

when was endfest? i am so out of it, (no radio listining lately) It was Saturday June 4th.... I missed it, hadda work... But I saw QOTSA when they breezed through town recently... Good show, glad I went, but the absence of Nick and Mark was quite noticeable I'm afraid...
