I guess last week was a bad time to split with my girlfriend who lives in new york. I mean, there's no bad feeling but I can't bear to go to new york and then leave for england another time. Hope they play Sheffield or something.
Was considering going to NYC for Pulp, but not very interested in a 6000-capacity seated capacity venue so I'll probably just try for SF and stick with Coachella.
Finally figured how to view the mobile Bar Italia. Just saw this this morning - so psyched! After a year of jealously hating all your incredible UK Pulp experiences I finally have the opportunity to see the gang and not jetison all my savings in the process. :)
Strange observation; in the e-mail I got this morning promoting the new tour dates I noticed Russell wasn't in the different class-esque promo picture in the background, suggesting maybe he wasn't going to make the US tour..... but then I noticed Steve was missing as well. Did someone go crazy with the cropping or are we seeing a dramatically different line-up? Or am I just overthinking all this?
I wondered if the missing people on the email was a clue too but if you click on the email to display as a web page, Russell is there. And I can't imagine him being there and Steve not, so I think it's just been cropped badly!
Yeah, it must just be my phone, my bad. And holy shit!! Just saw this on facebook;

Wouldn't read too much into that. "All original members", not quite and for "All periods of their career" probably means '92 onwards. I could be wrong but...
True, I'm just amazed that if what they're saying is correct Russell's actually going to make it overseas for the US dates - he's probably gonna be under some serious sedation on the plane...

I agree it is good news that Russel is going given the speculation over his new musical project here in blighty. I'm a tiny bit jealous.

It's just copied from the original reunion press release 15 months ago.
Delighted for the North Americans that can manage to go do this. You've only had to wait 14 years for Pulp to come back.
Will they sell-out a 6,000 venue? Must be the biggest indoor own-show they've done since the Hardcore arena tour.
I'm going to try with all my might to get tickets and hope all the American Express presale tickets don't go too fast GOD I HAVE TO SEE THEM I'm going crazy

Russell will be fine. I am terrified of flying and have done New York from the UK 4 times. Inconsolable tears kinda scared. Once you're up there there's not much to do but drink and get on with it
