The day after our last show of the USA tour and I’m sitting at the computer reflecting on what one hell of an adventure the whole thing was. (Note I updated this on 8 January).

Fittingly, we finished here in Portland where the reception is especially wild, even on a snowy Monday night with alarmists on the radio urging everyone to stay in. Thanks to those brave souls who chose differently.

Now we head for home after a vegetarian Thanksgiving in a couple of days. Time for a rest I guess, but it probably won’t work out that way.

Thanks for everybody’s patience regarding pre-orders. We’re ready to send everything except that darned DVD (Paris in the Fall) and those Crushed velvet bags which are on the way from India. Still, both are very much in the works now. Time for some hot chai… Continue reading Last 2010 Newsletter →

The Legendary Pink Dots US/Canada 2010 Tour is underway (and – note from Editor – word on the street is that the shows are great!). Note that there is now a SECOND show in New York as guests for the Dresden Dolls in their Halloween special.

Copies of Seconds Late for the Brighton Line arrived weeks ago (well… half arrived as the greedy Dutch customs held up a box of 25). We think we’ve sent all pre-orders at this point. If you didn’t receive your package, please email l_khata at yahoo dot com.

Other releases slowly appear over the next 2 weeks although we have encountered longer delays for the special edition of the “Crushed Velvet Apocalypse” remaster and “Paris in the Fall”.

There will be a string of shows in Poland in April (probably). Originally these dates were slated for this September but it was felt that it was best to wait for a few more months as we were so recently in that country. Shows in St. Petersburg and Moscow are also on the cards for Spring 2011.

The Dots are also set to play at the Wave Gotik Treffen Festival in Leipzig, Germany next June. Continue reading Autumn 2010 Newsletter →

Many apologies for the long silence from LPDs headquarters as sad personal events overshadowed everything else in early 2010.

Now we’re making plans for the future. New releases are in the pipeline and be prepared for a torrent of activity from The Dots in the coming months.

The 30th Anniversary Tour continues in October in North America and, following cancellations earlier in 2010, will be resume in Europe next Spring.
