Hey PM. I think that tour schedule was from 2 years ago. I could be wrong. But I had tix for the Milwaukee show at the Keswick and he was in Texas a few days before when his band quit on him [as usual] and they cancelled the rest of the tour - leaving me high n dry behind the cheddar curtain.

Or the schedule just looks like deja vu. But ya might want to check your source.

I just checked his site: it's the right schedule.

Scratch that PM. It does look like he is gonna give it another go. But he already cancelled the Milwaukee show! haha. Screw him anyway.

jinx

I saw MSG last summer at a big festival in the south of Spain but it was boring and i left after 3 or 4 songs. No magic at all live anymore, at least not that summer night.

Hmm, I may go see my friend in VA for that one, he plays the night before Destruction does

as there are no georgia dates, not me.

Definitely not. The last time I attempted to see him was in the Bay Area about 8 or 9 years ago. He played 3 songs, threw his guitar down and walked off stage. I'll never pay to see this fool ever again!

How come? I have heard a lot of crap about this guy, what is it that he keeps screwing up?

no Robin McAuley ? is it over ?

I have no clue, but my guess is that he's a whiner and has to have stuff done his way all the time. Great guitarist but a horrible personality. I don't know all the details behind the guy but he won't ever get my money or attendance again.

I saw that he had an off date for El Paso texas on poll star. If I really thought that he would not cancel the show I would love to see him play again. When this guy is on there really are not many better than M. Schenker. But he is so hit and miss that I don't want to spend the cash and do the drive only to be disappointed. This dude is freakin' awesome when he is on and if you ever get to experience him live... you will never forget it.

The same goes for Uli Jon Roth. I saw Roth one time(opening for MSG) and he had the place totally in his hand. Nobody was drinking, talking, or making any noise. It was as strange as any show I have ever seen, Roth is a "God" amongst guitar players and it shows live. If you ever get the chance, don't walk, RUN to go see him, it is way beyond his Hendrix era or Scorps type thing he is simply amazing. These german guitar players take the instrument to levels way beyond most.

Like the words came straight from my own mouth!

No one will see him. He will cancel out on the whole thing. Mark my words.

Hopefully, we will see a new album with Gary Barden, though. I'd buy it for sure.

If a "ho" is going, I might go too.

You could comfort her when Michael Shenker doesn't show.

I guess Ho is the only one that is going

Just got tickets to see M.S.G. on Friday, June 27'th in Cleveland. Didn't get the tickets sooner, as I was figuring he might postpone or cancel. The ticket prices were very reasonable, especially considering what a great show this might me. I hope he is "on", as it will be a show comparable only to Yngwie if Schenker is "on". It sounds like Schenker is a perfectionist, and gets pissed if he is not playing well. That is kind of funny. I suspect that, even drunk, he could still play as well as CeCe Deville, LOL!!!
