Wow! I only just found out about this but I have ordered my tickets already. Magma are playing the Cadogan Hall in Chelsea, London next May. I've never been to the venue but it looks nice. I believe it's quite new and is mainly a classical sort of place. ------------- Bob |

Hi,
I still find the concert I saw at the Progressive Music Festival in 1999 in SF, one of the very special concerts I have ever seen. They got a 10 minute standing ovation that had Christian in tears. ------------- Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about!

They might be due for a west coast swing. IIRC the last two times they came here it was on the east coast. ------------- The Pedro and Micky Experience - When one no longer requires psychotropics to trip |

I'm in London every 3rd week of the month and the 8th is out of range...too bad. ------------- I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution |

I have got tickets for Manchester - was surprised to see how many were snapped up already! Be quick Magma fans. It's also at the RNCM - great venue! |

Its prog and Magma...what do you think? My wife comes to all my concerts, but this one would cost me a $200 dinner at Morton's Steakhouse before the show just to get her to come with me.....  -------------

The present Mrs Syzygy has been to precisely 1 Magma gig and has made it clear that I'll be on my own for this one. ------------- 'Like so many of you I've got my doubts about how much to contribute to the already rich among us...' Robert Wyatt, Gloria Gloom |

Though I won't be able to make it to London, I'll jump at any opportunity to see Magma again if they are really planning a US tour. Their show at the French Embassy in September 2010 ranks as one of my best concert experiences ever. |

I unfortunately had the miss the French Embassy gig as I was driving over from Cincinnati & I couldn't justify driving over consecutive weekends to see Magma & Univers Zero. Originally they were meant to play the same weekend. ------------- Ian Host of the Post-Avant Jazzcore Happy Hour on Progrock.com https://podcasts.progrock.com/post-avant-jazzcore-happy-hour/ |

My partner is coming with me to see them in Manchester. Unlike myself, she is multi-lingual but that does not include Kobaian! |

My wife is coming with me. She said she would much rather see Magma than Yes (who she has always refused to go and see with me)! ------------- Bob |

I wouldn't want to see Yes nowadays either! Magma are a different proposition altogether and I can't wait to see them. |
