[Richard The Fourth]

Hubba Hubba, record it and release it. That should do nicely til we get the wonderful 'bonfires' that we are owed.

 

[Young And Alive]

As if he'll even turn up.

Why not?

It's a defining album in his career and I think he should - absolutely.

He may cancel other engagements leading up to this date, but this - I think he will honour, or reschedule worst case.

 

[No Excuse]

Are you being thick or do you really not get the optics here?

Yeah, it's a bit "Don't look at that (dumpster fire), look over here (shiny thing in the future)!"

 

[j*e*t]

The support band sounds a bit like Joy Division.

Love that! I have this on one of my YouTube playlists:

 

[Southport Grandma]

Never gonna happen.

He just can’t be bothered anymore.

Those sound like good song titles, are they on “You Are The Quarry”?

 

[Billy A]

Could this be for a live recording and a repackaged album celebrating the 20 year anniversary? Scheduled at the start of the year for a release months later? Something tells me a deal is likely with this as part of the package. We remain in hope.

 

[Anonimyth]

Expect a 700% lackluster performance without any hint of enthusiasm or intensity.

 

[Vesper Nocturne]

^ 700% loser comment

 

[Jamie]

This is the kind of thing he should be doing. But the fact that it's being performed by his current band, with no one who actually composed the music or performed on the album makes it less interesting to me.

Exactly. Imo, it would be borderline ludicrous to do this without Alain or Boz being involved. If it's one show, there's absolutely no reasonable excuse that they can't be included.

 

[Thewlis]

Would you consider 2023 a great Moz year?

No, a regular year, why?

Two shows.
Yes, will be interesting to see who is involved.
I like the suggestion that it could be for a recording for a repackaged album celebrating the 20 year anniversary. He seems most proud of this album.

 

[theprivilegeismine]

He did Are You Sure Hank Done It This Way AND Darling I Hug A Pillow.

I'm aware of that. It is still not representative of 40 years.

 

[Trevelbond]

Now THIS is exciting. Only thing that would make it better is if Alain Whyte and/or Boz came back in for those shows.

I'm going to be in the Caribbean that week, otherwise I'd be booking a flight from SFO right now.

Come Back to Camden performed live, at last

Already done. Vicar St and Palladium 2011.

I know, right.

I like the design of the poster.

Just heard he’s cancelled this date
