Just a guess, but I bet it has to do with Arthur's health, etc... He was not in good form at last week's San Francisco show, with leg problems and "other" issues. Basically he was a mess! Sorry about the cancelled show. A true Bummer In the Summer.....( However, I have faith in him rising from the ashes once again...)

Arthur is pretty much unlikely to be with the band on this tour.
But don't let that discourage you from going.
I just got back from a 'Love without Arthur Lee' gig in Stourbridge and it was the best thing I've been to for a long time.
Great music, great atmosphere, excellent.
Catch them if you can |

I'm glad things went well in Stourbridge last night, and I'd be happy to see the band without Arthur, the only thing that will stop me going is if the gig is cancelled. I have been in touch with the junction box office just now and according to them the whole tour has been cancelled, i know thats not right obviously and i hope the band get to Cambridge on tuesday. |

Unfortunately, Cambridge is cancelled. I've just phoned the box-office. Love, John E |

The whole tour is not cancelled - or it certainly wasn't as of this morning when I was talking to Mike. I will keep things posted as I hear further details but you will appreciate that while the band are actually touring, its hard for them to communicate, and Glenn is busy today. |

The Oxford gig at the Zodiac on the 6th is still on. After Stourbridge last night, which was fantastic, I phoned them and booked tickets. The accepted the order - no problem. |

Well i'm sorry but the earth will implode if they play oxford and not cambridge, its a well known law of physics, and the odds are stacked against that happening especially as mikes band is called baby lemonade, now if they were called inspector morse then that would be different. Lets just hope things become clearer soon. |

Well, Johnny's band is called LOVE, which includes members of Baby Lemonade -- but it's not BL's tour, it's LOVE with JOHNNY ECHOLS now that Arthur was unable to participate. Johnny has just as much of a claim to LOVE as Arthur does. Hopefully, Arthur will follow his lifetime friend's example and get his disease under control. He's in my prayers, as are all the members of LOVE presently touring.
I'm sure it must be very confusing -- not knowing what dates are still on. But, this has been a long time coming and Johnny couldn't have shown up at a better time. And that's the way it's supposed to be. I just hope they'll come and do some shows in So. Calif when they get back -- it sounds like they are really jamming!!

Yes the baby lemonade reference was meant as a joke being as it came from a song by a cambridge bloke called syd barrett, and inspector morse is an oxford reference, you see i am married to an american so i know how to explain things heh. I was very much looking forward to seeing johnny echols on this tour and your right he is an important part of the original Love . |

You certainly do, SimonB! Thanx for the explanation -- it gave me a good laugh. You've learned well!!
I hope you get a chance to see Johnny's performance with the group. I know you won't be disappointed.
LOVE and peace
