Richard wrote a new diary entry today: http://richard-bennett.com/

It's really worth to read in its entirety, but here I'd like to quote the MK-relevant passage:

"It's nice being home again but before long the bags are coming down again as we head off for a few dates with Mark at the end of October.  It's the shortest tour ever, all of 5 shows... Los Angeles, Long Beach, Las Vegas and two shows in Oakland.  Looking forward to seeing the boys again."

Mark's not going to the US west coast just for 5 shows. You can bet something else is going down.

Yes, I think so too.  What about the TV appearances in the thread title?

I sure hope so.  It will be nice for fans in other parts of the US to see Mark again.  I doubt it will happen though.    They will have to make an official announcement soon for that to happen. We shall see !

I don't see why "just" five shows would not be enough for MK to go to the US West coast...

I'm sure Guy has said in the past that they don't go to SA because it wouldn't be worthwhile just for a few shows, so why go to the west coast of NA and play 5 shows in very small venues?  I'm sure they will do a TV show or 2 or maybe even a showcase!

Well America don't make any decent cars so I doubt he would do that!
