When the Thrill Kill Kult canceled its gig Wednesday night at the Record Bar the story was that the band had broken up. According to RB co-owner Steve Tulipana, Marston "Mars" Daley (aka Buzz McCoy) from the band called him Wednesday morning to deliver the news. The entry I posted about the cancellation and alleged breakup took on a little life of its own in the comments section over the ensuing days, with fans disputing the news and Tulipana weighing in with what Mars told him on Wednesday.
Turns out, if they were broken up a few days ago (and I wholeheartedly trust Steve at his word), they apparently aren't now.
Yesterday, I e-mailed a spokesperson for the band, and she wrote back today with the following.
"we had to cancel some shows for a variety of reason, including groovie mann has strep throat and our transportation has been a disaster to deal with. hopefully the west coast shows will go on. there has been no official statement from the band."
Good news for TKK fans, then.
Something else I learned: there's a big, very NSFW difference between mylifewiththethrillkillkult.com and just thrillkillkult.com.
Long live My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult, and long live "Busty Nastya from Russia."

Who is she that e-mailed you? Tina Kassanova? Tina is Buzz McCoy! This is just a ridiculous and dishonest bunch of bullshit to cover up internal problems that fans are tired of dealing with time and again. I will never buy another ticket to one of their shows. This is not the first wacky problem to cancel a show.
