Any word on a new album from Donald Fagen (long overdue)?

Or Joe Jackson?

Or King Crimson?

Or Peter Gabriel?

Or the Cars?

Or tours by any of the above?

Or a tour by Talking Heads?

King Crimson is kaput.  Or so says Robert Frip.

> Or Peter Gabriel?

I haven't heard anything about a new Peter Gabriel album, but there is a
strong correlation between the release of Peter Gabriel albums and Kate
Bush albums.  Both have four albums (not counting "Birdy").  For both,
their albums came out in 1977, 1978, 1980, and 1982.  In fact, "The
Dreaming" and "Security" were released simultaneously.  Since a Kate
Bush album is due this year (hopefully!), shouldn't we conclude (if we
accept scientific induction as a valid form of reasoning) that a Peter
Gabriel album is due this year too?  Then again, maybe "Birdy" counts as
a real album....

In any case, I sent off a letter to some club in England called
"Friends of Peter Gabriel" asking about this.  I'll tell you if I get a
response.

I heard tell of a King Crimson CONCERT not long ago. Are my sources as
ignorant as I am?
