April 2025: “When I go to play music in Europe, if I talk about Donald J. Trump, I may be one of those returning to America who is barred or put in jail to sleep on a cement floor with an aluminium blanket,” he wrote on his website. “That’s right folks, if you say anything bad about Trump or his administration, you may be barred from re-entering USA.”


Ah, ok.  Fair point, although I'm not sure there's much evidence of that yet is there?  Probably best not to risk it though!  In any case, he does have the strong advantages in Trump's U.S. of being a) very rich, and b) very Caucasian.

Or not an upcoming gig ... Neil Young has cancelled all of this summer's European gigs.


Maybe he’s worried they won’t let him back in.


He is actually a US citizen these days (but only in 2020) but not sure that counts for much these days.  He's been cancelling tours for half a century.  Contrary old chap is our Neil...

Oh no , Fred was crucial to the 3 Television albums , and played in an early Blondie line up I think
He played on Tom's first 2 solo LP's too , maybe more
RIP Fred Smith


He was (as they all were) always awesome on the three occasions I saw Television live.

Indoor Festival of Folk at Cecil Sharp House on Saturday - The Magpie Arc, Ellie Gowers, Chris Wood, Lisa Knapp and Gerry Diver, Maddy Prior and Peter Knight, and Matthew Bannister interviewing Simon Nicol.

That's a lot of people to interview Simon. Wink

I've just returned my ticket to Cecil Sharp House as I can no longer make it.  From what was said to me, I'm not entirely convinced that Martin won't actually be present...


I’m a bit confused by the double negative. Do you mean that you think that Martin won’t be there?


The opposite.  It's been stated he's retired from live performance and this is a tour of Eliza with guests doing Martin's material.  But what I was told seemed to imply that he would be present.  All will be revealed, I guess....
