I will be at the show, it is rare to find a band that sounds like Neil Sedaka

I will be gone by then, but if one of the other dates in the US on the West Coast, I'll consider it.

Oh, I think you have them confused with the British Semen Powderpuffs. And it not a violin but a flute.  They do a mean cover of Thick As A Brick.

so I guess that makes it a certainty that he wont be coming to the US.
 
 Is this show really going to happen. I havent seen anything on any other site confirming it, have you?

Its not on the libertines site. And normally NME prints news of one of then sneezing, yet it has been quiet.
 
 I just think its strange.

They've replaced Pete with one of their guitar techs and have been doing quite well keeping up with their UK gigs. I wouldn't worry. They'll be here but I'm sure without Pete.
 
 British Sea Power alone are worth making it to the show.   ;)
