Important news re Tusla gig
GBH is disappointed to announce that our show in Tulsa, Oklahoma on Sunday, August 31 has been CANCELLED.
The band and their booking agent tried to save the gig and, indeed, we released an announcement of
a venue change to Bob's inside Cain's Ballroom via our myspace page on Thursday,
August 28 thinking that the show had been saved. Unfortunately, promoter issues beyond our control sabotaged our efforts and there will be no show, at either The Rose Bowl or Bob's.
GBH would like to thank the fans who bought tickets, emailed the promoter and otherwise supported us on this issue. We would also like to thank Cain's Ballroom for trying to save the show. We apologise to everyone and are exploring our legal options concerning the original promoter. GBH will make playing Tulsa a priority on our next tour.
From before...
A huge Northern America tour centred around the 2008 Van's Warped Tour is now on its way - some 39 dates, the like of which the guys haven't done in many a year. With all the members of the band back in the country, the boys are busy working on new material and there's a lot of behind the scenes activity regarding that... but it's all very hush-hush for now ! Watch this space...

2004, Wilma Producciones have

Tour dates for .. ..
A note to promoters: If your gig isn't listed on our tours page then
it's because I haven't been sent the information to be able to list it, the
more information you supply me with the better, the onus is on you to provide
it !

Some items for sale by various vendors, T-shirts, back catalogue etc.
These have actually been arranged in terms of geographic location, if you
think that there is something which could be included then let us know. Use
the Punk Rock Shop
to buy our merchandise by credit card if you live abroad.
An interview given by Jock for a now defunct Brazilian fanzine .. so
I used it instead !
Read some accounts of recent concerts given by the band, there are a
number of interesting photos and flyers which accompany these articles.
Due to pressures of space and bandwidth, I now have a policy of asking people
to write and host their own reviews of the bands' gigs, if you send us a link
we'll be happy to include these on the reviews page where possible. Please
do not try to send articles and photos without clearing it with me
first, thank-you.
