many brits, as with many australians, are eligible for the visa waiver
program for tourist visas. i'm not, as i have a criminal record for
offensive language. i allegedly said f##k while walking along a street in
sydney. (just tell them i have salt in my porridge!)
if you're eligible for the visa waiver program things are straightforward.
if you're not, they're not worth the trouble, especially if you're just
visiting your family-in-law and attending a wedding in westchester.
now, i think i'll try a week in shanghai and a week bushwalking in
tasmania.

when he played in brooklyn a few years back there was a nice
size
turnout
for the night, at least by new york standards. maybe in europe
he
gets
mobbed and followed by paparazzi. but what the hell, I-f can
choose
to play
where and when he wants without owing me an explanation.
but i've got to say, visa issues wouldn't help. i was planning
to
return to
new york for a visit in may - but the visa process isn't worth
the
hassle -
i have to get a copy of any police record, be fingerprinted
and
photographed, attend at interview, show all passports i've
ever
held, fill
out a form listing all mititary training, any experience with
welding,
firearms, explosives etc., and the list continues. and when i
arrive
at LAX
there is no guaraantee i'll be let in - they'll put me back on
the
plane if
i have an unpaid parking fine in australia.

How many times would you fly (in this case) from Holland to
the
States, to
gigs where no one came to?
You'd get sick of it in the end, and would probably accept
gigs on
the
basis
that they are at least gonna be worth your while....
It's not exactly a new thing (decent artists bombing in the
US)
anyway.

yeah but ferenc might think that's too much bother for the
return he
gets so would rather put that effort elsewhere.
anyway you americans burn disco records in your
stadiums...that irks
us
disco loving europeans. :) (and there's the detroit
on-topicness
too)
