Jess et al.,

Bad news from

August 1999 

After months of silence, I finally have some news of
what The Selecter has been up to lately, courtesy of
Pauline Black herself: 

"I must apologise about not getting in touch with you
for so long. This has mainly been due to uncertainty
about whether we were doing a U.S. tour this year.
There seemed no point in telling you anything very
much until I was certain about what we were doing! 

Well, as you probably know already the ska scene has
gone rather pear-shaped Stateside at present. It has
not been possible for us to get the kind of venues
suitable for us at a comparable rate with which we are
generally used to. It would seem that so many ska
bands being on the scene has now led to complete
overkill and very nervous promoters. So we have no
plans to tour overseas in the near future.
