TOBY Group: Members Posts: 1562 Joined: May 2002 Posted: July 17 2002, 13:24 Just seen a big advert in Uncut magazine for Tre3s Lunas anouncing "The new studio album from Mike Oldfield". Its release date "1st July 2002". With the album not out untill the 12th of August what the f***ing hell is going on? Nowonder Mike's profile here in the UK is vanishing, does nobody here care enough to get things right? Methinks someone somewhere should be given a kick up the arse. Back to top

It seems WEA UK are intent on messing up all of their own (barely existent) promotion for Mike. 'cock up' indeed...

Why did they push back the release date at all? Just hurry up and release the thing!   -------------- Thank-you for helping us help you help us all. Back to top

TOBY Group: Members Posts: 1562 Joined: May 2002 Posted: Aug. 11 2002, 08:54 So Tr3s Lunas is released tomorrow in the UK. Hooray! Is eveyone here excited? I bet most of the Brits reading this won't be able to sleep tonight with excitment, no doubt most of you will be at the front door of your local HMV at 9 am like me (not) . So in the end what was the reason for the delayed release? The newspapers and music press haven't exactly been overflowing with articles and adds. Anyone care for an explanation? Back to top

Korgscrew Group: Super Admins Posts: 3511 Joined: Dec. 1999 Posted: Aug. 11 2002, 09:15 There has been talk that the release of To Be Free in the UK has been pulled. I've not heard anything official on that, though. Let's hope the same doesn't happen to Tres Lunas, though I actually wouldn't put it past them... Back to top
