Hello John, Due to problems concerning to the unproperly use of "Kraftwerk" brand in the announcing of your shows, Karl Bartos had to cancel all your shows at USA. As you know, these shows were announced like Kraftwerk, or with the outstanding word Kraftwerk. Of course Bartos have all the rights to plays the Kraftwerk musics which he composed, but at his last concerts he (or the producers) was using the brand Kraftwerk unproperly. I think that the release of his new album "Communication" in the same time of "Tour de France Soundtracks" it's not a mere coincidence...he's surfing the Kraftwerk's wave... Marcelo Duarte Brasil JS> I hear, from someone who has recently spoken to Karl Bartos' other half, JS> that the concerts announced on this list are NOT going to happen. A phone JS> call or two to the venues seem to confirm that. JS> October is more than likely (at this moment in time) to be when Karl plays JS> in the UK.
