Pulp USA Dates??

I was browsing on Pulp's Last.Fm page and saw that someone posted these dates:

14 October Hollywood Palladium Los Angeles
15 October Treasure Island Festival San Francisco
18 October Paramount Theatre Seattle
19 October Orpheum Vancouver 
21 October Métropolis Montreal
22 October Massey Hall Toronto 
24 October Aragon Ballroom Chicago
27 October Roseland Ballroom New York
28 October Roseland Ballroom New York 

Can anyone verfiy these dates? It'd be outrageous if these were true.

Well, if this list is phony, then it's a pretty good phony.

The venues are the right venues for Pulp, and I haven't found any date conflicts. Treasure Island Festival seems like a good fit as well. I think this might be the real deal, sans Russell.

On the other hand, the band had a lot of negative things to say about touring in America in their recent Lamancq interview. Sounds like they still have some emotional scars from the experience.

If they are real, hopefully that means some UK dates to follow?

So to disappoint you guys, I had it straight from the horse's mouth' ie a certain Mr. Webber, that there are no plans to tour America especially in October He actually said that if there were plans to tour the States he ceratinly didn't know about it. (Those dates in the last weeks of October clash with Mark's Experimenta Weekend at the BFI, something he was very adamant about).

So you heard it here folks. LastFM are talking balls. Sorry.

Weird to think that someone would go to all the trouble of finding plausible dates and venues!

So let me just state it outright: What, if anything, can we do to get Pulp to play some shows in America? Create a Facebook page? Pester their booking agent? Write letters to Barack Obama? Let me know, I'm willing to give this a shot.

Why do you reckon they're not bothering with the US then, just because it's so much of a slog to do it? Cause Blur didn't tour the US either. It can't be due to the fact they're not popular enough, I mean I saw Jarvis play at pretty big venue in LA, which was pretty much sold out. Hmmm.

The Lamacq interview is pretty great, but basically they said how much touring America sucked. I'm pretty sure you can still listen to it, the pulp bit is about an hour in.

I hope they choose a better venue than Massey Hall though.. eww

I can imagine that getting all that equipment across to the USA (having also gone to Australia) would start to seriously cut into profit margins.

Btw, what was the twitter announcement/email...?

And we could consider clubbing together and buying ourselves a Pulp date. Can we choose the setlist for $50k...?

If everyone paid $50 each (not an unreasonable price) you'd have yourself a nice intimate 1,000 capacity gig. But I guess thats partly because Pulp would be in less demand in the US than in the UK.

November would seem to fit in, though it'd make an Autumn UK tour less likely and mean it'd be more likely to be after the turn of the year. Which would personally suck for me as I plan on moving Down Under...

I know this is not really the appropriate thread but it didn't seem worth a new thread...

I just came across some old fanzine stuff from 1996 and found these old postcards.  They're so adorable I wanted to share them to make all of us American fans nostalgic...

K.  Posted the Clinton one bc I think that's the funniest...


Also found a trove of old press clippings, issues of Pulp People and Pulp Scrapbook, letters from Alex (remember Alex?  Fabulous lady, wonder what she's doing now), a very sweet letter from Mark ("I'm the cute one, so I'm told" LoL), press kits, etc...still haven't come across my postcards/letters from the band, sadly (besides that one from Mark).  There's a press photo of the band from "This is Hardcore".  Still makes me so sad to see photos of Pulp without Russell.

Is Pulp planning North American shows for the fall?
August 4, 2011Nicole Villeneuve


When Pulp announced their reunion in late 2010, it was initially for a handful of festival dates throughout the U.K., and while the band is still in the midst of those dates, a small sign that they may be coming to North America in the fall has turned up.

Brooklyn Vegan has pointed to some blogs that, in their college/university band-booking knowledge, have spotted Pulps name on a booking companys list. They are going for a whopping $50,000 (colleges and universities have insane budgets for this sort of thing), and are listed as available in the month of November.

Rumours! Its what the internet is made for.

Thanks for sharing the postcards. If you have no objection, I'll display them on the PulpWiki 96 North American Tour page.

 I went ahead and added them.  Cuz I'm a nerd like that...

I have this setlist that I thought was from the San Francisco show (I have the L.A. setlist too, but I couldn't scan it because it's all taped up and sticky), but it doesn't match what's on the site:

Already posted above.
If there's any truth in it you imagine that news would be imminent as we're already in August.

Interesting, thanks.

There have been some offers from far away shores for later in the year which hasnt been formalised or decided upon, said drummer Nick Banks when The Star grabbed an exclusive chat.

WHAT ARE THEY WAITING FOR??? AAAAAH!
