147.0. "The BUZZCOCKS and spin-offs" by MED::ARTHUR (Walk away...in silence) Thu Jul 14 1988 19:34

	Anyone have any info about the new stuff (album?) by
	FLAG OF CONVENIENCE?

	I have the "Life on the Telephone" single and "50 Years
	of Comparative History (?)" e.p. by Steve Diggle.

	I'm interested in seeing what the former Buzzcocks are
	up to - especially since Pete Shelley's last wasn't
	great...

The BUZZCOCKS  with original line-up are scheduled to play CITI in Boston on
November 9, 1989! Pete Shelley/Steve Diggle/etc.

Have they  played  dates  in  the  UK with the original line-up? This is the
first I've heard of them getting back together...

They were  more popular in the states once they broke up then when they were
together and this seems like the best chance I have of seeing them...however
I'm not going to be in town on that date :-( I'd be interested if anyone can
post their tour schedule...
