Wow! In Chicago too!

Also cool to see the Didjits (local Champaign, IL punks done good) on the bill!

With MoAM there too...would be a 'can't miss'.

I hope someone has a video camera!

That should be good. If you go, I'd love to read a review on that.

About time those guys pull their heads out.
Of course you know it won't last, and they probably won't tour.

Sorry that's the pessimist( sp?) in me.

This was posted by the Man or Astroman myspace id today:

"To answer all the questions of whether or not Man or Astro-Man? is reuniting for the Touch and Go 25th Anniversary, the answer is yes...er, maybe, well actually...no? You'll have to see for yourself. The early indications seem that the original incarnation of what has now been revealed as "The Earth Version" has indeed returned into the far reaches of some great beyond and may never share the stage again. But with science being what it is in outer space and all, there could possibly be a chance that some original lifeforms' sub-genetic particles that were used to create the version you know and love, or hate, could possibly arrive this Earth year in Chicago sometime around September, which would truly leave us all asking, "Is it...Man or Astro-Man?"

Right? Or were you thinking "Is it...old fat dudes in space suits?"

I read that too, and I assume it's safe to say Star Crunch is not going to be there?

I have no idea what the above means. Maybe it means Mr. Neutron, Dr. Deleto, and Dexter-X will be there with a clone drummer.

c'mmon, you just invented the midget project...
I'm half hoping that it's not the full old line-up, so I won't need to torment myself about not going.

I don't know if the Girls or Midget clone projects were true or not.
I just heard from someone at my work about that. Never saw it in print or on the internet. I did see the Alpha and Beta clone projects, on seperate tours. Some here say that the one of the clone projects
was Johnny and the Shamen, a very good band on their own right.

There were no midget clones Jeff!

The Gamma clones (all girl) were real though.
