The Specials are doing some U.S. dates, and I was hoping someone in the know could tell me if it will be the original line-up like last years reunion tour. I checked out some vids from the tour last year and it looks like it was a blast.

    Jerry Dammers is missing from the lineup.
    "You're no help," he told the lime. This was unfair. It was only a lime; there was nothing special about it at all. It was doing the best it could.

    Do you have a list of the dates? I heard they were going to do a small US tour but I don't see anything on their site.

    These are the only dates I've found so far:

    TUESDAY 13TH APRIL: APPEARANCE ON NBC`S LATE NIGHT WITH JIMMY FALLON 12:35/11:35c

    THURSDAY 15TH APRIL: CONCERT AT CLUB NOKIA LA CALIFORNIA

    FRIDAY 16TH APRIL: PERFORMANCE AT COACHELLA FESTIVAL INDIO CALIFORNIA

    MONDAY 19TH APRIL: CONCERT AT SOUND ACADEMY TORONTO ONTARIO CANADA

    WEDNESDAY 21ST APRIL: TERMINAL 5 NEW YORK NY

    They've added a second New York date.

    No Jerry but they have Terry. I'm definitely going to the show in Toronto.

    This place Washington DC I hope they'll play a show or it'll turn into a GHOST TOWN.

    Love the band, wish them well.
