TOUR NEWS
UK TOUR CANCELLED!
[October 28, 2004]
Unfortunately the UK tour that was planned for December 2004 has been
cancelled. Reason is drummer Chad Smith's commitment to his band the
Red Hot Chili Peppers, who are in the middel of recording a new album.
A new Glenn Hughes tour has been planned for the early spring of 2005.
Here is a statement from Chad:
"Regretfully,
due to work on the next Chili Peppers album taking much longer than
originally anticipated, it is with much sadness that I have to announce
that I will not be able to appear on the UK December tour with Glenn
Hughes. I want everyone out there to know that I am incredibly disappointed,
and the decision to cancel has not been easy. Schedules permitting,
Glenn and I will be touring together in the UK at some point
in the very near future, so Ill be looking forward to seeing you
all then."

TOUR EUROPE: BERLIN CANCELLED!

and the others are upset and disappointed that this happened. The cancellation
has been made due to a situation that the band absolutely had no grip
on. There are no consequences for the rest of the tour, which will just
continue according to plan.

URGENT MESSAGE!
[December

Studios City Walk in Orlando, Florida tonight. In relation to that we
have an urgent message for all of you going there. Glenn has been fighting
the flu all week, but wanted to to wait to as close to the show as possible
to evaluate whether he would be in a position to sing or not, and he
is not. Accordingly,
he will be performing tonight, but not singing. But as always his fans
come first, so glenn has arranged a meet & greet at the velvet room
of the Hard Rock for his fans from between 5:00 and 6:00 p.m. tonight.
Glenn wants to be able to spend time personally with his fans. He feels
bad, but his health and his fans are paramount to him, and this plan
accommodates both.

(where NAMM is taking place). There will be a lot of other acts performing
as well between 7pm-12. This is an by invitation only party with passes
available from any of the participating sponsors (500 person capacity
in total). Possibly you could try to look up the different sponsoring
companies at the NAMM show to see if you could get invited, but then
again NAMM trade shows are closed to the public as it's exclusively
aimed at companies in the music business.

coast tour. So hopefully I will be seeing you patient Americans very
soon! My agent, Mark Hyman, was 'blown away' by the fantastic reviews
and great response that the European tour got. I am very EXCITED to
be able to play in the country where I live, and to give my fans something
they have been waiting for, something I too have been longing to do.
When the shows are booked, you will be the first to know. This has been
