--- You wrote: You know, I've always wondered why Kate doesn't put together a sort of pseudo-tour video. She likes working with film. She could film a selection of her songs in a studio on a stage, live, as she would do them on a tour (so they wouldn't come across as simply videos), using costumes and backing band and sets and props and all. I would love it just as much as my tape of Live at Hammersmith Odeon, and she wouldn't get tired having to perform many shows in a row as with a real, full-fledged tour. But the way she works, I'm sure something like this would take her as long as an album does. I still think it's a good idea, though, and not unrealistic as far as the ability to actually implement it goes. Maybe we could beg her to do this? --- end of quoted material --- No. Kate's just a spoiled baby. There's no reason why she can't tour just like most other artists. Kate couldn't care less. All she wants is to make an album every 4-5 years. Her career is more like a hobby to her. She's rich and comfortable and does what she wants to do. That's it. If you look at it objectively, she's done little for her fans. Pity. She doesn't have to make a 15 month world tour, but she can certainly make a few dates in London, Paris, New York, L.A., Tokyo and Sydney. And from these 2 dozen shows, a LIVE video can easily be made. This could make up for her lack of touring in the past. ...I'm sorry....I'm in a bad mood today. :-( peace ron
