| News:
Monday
27th March 2000 : No
European gigs this year! |
| As
the management of RHCP have informed me,
contrary
to prevailing rumours the
Peppers
will
not play any concerts in Europe this year. This
applies to festivals as well as
possible
solo
gigs.
This
information has been verified to
me
personally by their spokesperson and is a
definite
decision
.The
reason for this is that: .."the Europeans have had them
three times already, while
America
hasn't had a proper tour in years."
Therefore
touring America is given priority. |

27.2.00 - Thanks
a million times for all of you chatroom visitors
tonight,
for having made this a true reunion and spreading such a wonderful
spirit ! I really hope it can stay that way - It's up to you !The
room is, what you make out of it, all of you.. so please keep
the habitual troublemakers out - don't give them any hold over
this room too like they did in the old one- put them on ignore,
if u are all doing it, it works!
Of course you can tell them your opinion and defend yourself,
the thing is, not to make this actually enjoyable for them though
- most of all they want attention and the more they can annoy
you, and make the nice folk leave, the more they'll love it...
21.02.00 - New
section on the "Pictures" page: Offstage - Home and
Away.

I apologize for the current trouble with both chatrooms. If
you enter chili chat, it appears that no one can read you, or
you them. In the second room, which I had installed for precisely
this purpose, people have reported that they can't register and
it says" temporary room" The chatting in room2 works
fine though once you have entered.- Apparently this host has technical
problems too! I've mailed both of them and looked up their tech
help pages but the problems weren't listed. All I can do unfortunately,
is to wait for the hosts to solve this - Hopefully by Monday.
Please keep checking back, thank You for Your patience.
1.3.00

technical problems of Multicity. So if you have problems in the
Multichat, just go to "Chatroom 2".
