A
Japanese tour was planned for April, getting so far as to be advertised in the
music press, but was cancelled on February 12th.
According
to sources in Japan, the tour was originally penciled in for late 1999, but was
postponed due to problems with the venues so these were replacement shows. This
time the promoter refused attempts to postpone them and so the tour was
cancelled.
The
main reason for the cancellation would appear to have been the long awaited UK
tour.
Also
by now further line up changes had occurred.
Gellar was also reduced to merely supplying backing vocals
Below
are all the dates known from this period.
If
a show, in part or full has been released on one or more bootlegs these are
listed in yellow.
All
interesting facts and anecdotes are in italics.
