Subject: Just in case you don't know...

The latest Thunder news. If you are a Thunder Channel! member you should already know this.
If you don't then something has gone amiss with the post and you should drop us a line
immediately!!

Danny has recently had a knee operation he needs time to recuperate full before gigging again.
Luke is utilising this time to moonlight with Power Station again, this time in the USA. But 
they will both return in November with the best news of all...

As rumoured, Thunder WILL be recording a live album! Entitled 'Thunder - Live In England', it
will be recorded over four dates at two venues in November. The dates are as follows;


12th November           Wolverhampton Wulfrun Hall
13th November           Wolverhampton Wulfrun Hall
15th November           London, Shepherd's Bush Empire
16th November           London, Shepherd's Bush Empire

There will be a different set every night and Danny promises me these shows will not be 
ordinary Thunder shows!! They will be a Thunder extravaganza - extraordinary - exhilarating.
(Enough eggs!!) Some songs will be acoustic, some will be different versions than usual, 
there will be surprises every night, you name it, Thunder are planning it!  The best recordings 
from the four nights will be used for the album, which will probably be released early '98 on 
Thunder's B Lucky label, after negotiations for a new record deal have been cemented.

A video is ALSO planned! It will be along the same lines, released to accompany the album; 
two of the shows will be recorded. There may also be a chance for you to appear in the 
video, as a cameraman may wander down to the entrance of the venue and give you a 
chance to tell Thunder how much you love them, which of course you do, otherwise you 
wouldn't be reading this!! The video is due to the fact that the fans all been banging on
about it for so long that the lads have finally given in. So all your hard work paid off!

You can of course obtain tickets through Thunder Channel! if you are a full member. 
As usual we offer standing tickets unless asked otherwise (London only) AND you don't 
pay a booking fee. AND even better, if you want to come to all four shows we are offering
a discount.

If you are a non-member you will need to contact the Box Offices direct, or local ticket 
agencies.

Well, as usual if you need any further info drop us a line. You have our email address. 
The snail mail address is Thunder Channel! PO Box 4672 London N11 2JB. 
Please enclose an SAE with any correspondence requiring an answer.
