UK AUGUST FESTIVALS: PICKERING AND TARTAN HEART The Waterboys have been confirmed for two UK festivals in August: Fri 8 Aug: Pickering Folk Festival, Pickering...
Hi all To be honest, without coming across all high and mighty, you should be copying official releases, regardless if they are out of print. From what I know...
... I assume you mean shouldn't ;-) Anyway, I assume we're talking about 'Sunflowers' and 'Lion of Love' here. As nobody is being deprived of income by copying...
Yes, It does sound a bit "high and Mighty", and the nature of these discs as free fan club is such that common sense says it would be ok to copy them. If I...
Maybe I'm too honest for my own good but I believe in supporting artists by buying their official product and not getting someone to copy it for me. Call me...
... I've heard a similar rumour, though not directly from Mike or his management. It's certainly a grey area, but on the whole I tend to agree with Andy. It's...
STRANGE BOAT SINGLE - NOW ON ITUNES The new version of Strange Boat, sung by Eleanor Shanley with backing by Mike Scott, Sharon Shannon and others, was...
Mike has a new blog about playing with French band Cali, along with Wickham. His words regarding Bruno are all true. I saw Cali play in Dublin two years ago...
KISS THE WIND - EXCLUSIVE DOWNLOAD ALBUM & WATERBOYS NEW ONLINE STORE We're delighted to announce our new online store goes live Monday 28th April at...

... I'm suspecting that it will be a solo demo rather than a full-band studio version. But I've been wrong before! I'm really looking forward to The Fellow...
The Waterboys played at the Haldern Open Air last year in August. The broadcast is scheduled for June 15th (in fact it is in the early morning of June 16th)....
Cool! There was 40+ min broadcast of last year's show on DIME, lets hope we get the whole show this time! Tom ... -- http://myspace.com/BackyardUniverse ...
An "mp3 only" release, it's a SHAME. I hope it's only based on ignorance (about lossless formats), and we are here to let him know about them ... otherwise...
A similar thing happened over ont he David Sylvian forum. The person running his download store changed it to include both mp3 and FLAC files. They do charge...
Same here - I don't pay money for MP3s; occasionally I d/l them as freebies, but always get the "real" release asap. Pearl Jam are reknowned for offering their...
Our new website store is live NOW, set up and run in collaboration with top online retailer Townsend Records. The new download-only album, KISS THE WIND,...
