Very pleased to announce that BRIKKUNI and HUNTERS PALACE will also play at this gig.
Hunters are going to be coming purposely from Brussels (Alex) and UK (Peter and Vinicius).
And btw if anyone is interested in getting a copy of the Huners Palace album released last Summer they have left some albums in my care.

People, what more do you need to know? You shall be in the presence of a legend. Please get ready for Bonnie 'Prince' Billy ... Ladies and Gentleman, this is a rare opportunity to see a singular performance of great magnitude brought forth from the lungs of Bonnie 'Prince' Billy: A hard living, sweet singing man of international repute. Having performed under four different monikers, he is renowned for his prolific nature (releasing three albums in 2008 alone) and love of performing. There is simply too much that we would have to cover in order to describe the artist that is Bonnie 'Prince' Billy. Music biographers have run the gamut from album to album in an attempt to capture the man. But in this case its best to just come. So come. Forming the penultimate date on his European tour, the significance of this gig and its importance for Malta cannot be underestimated. Local future legends Brikkuni and the elusive Hunters Palace will be supporting too, which all leads to the inescapable conclusion that this will be one of the best gigs you're likely to ever see on local shores. Below are the tour dates (and have a look at the videos just below those): EUROPEAN TOUR DATES APRIL 2009 20 UK, LONDON - ROYAL FESTIVAL HALL* - SOLD OUT 21 UK, BRIGHTON - ST GEORGE'S CHURCH* - SOLD OUT 22 BE, BRUSSELS - AB* - SOLD OUT 23 NL, AMSTERDAM - PARADISO* - SOLD OUT 24 FR, PARIS - LE CIGALE* 25 FR, BOURGES - PRINTEMPS DU BOURGES* 26 FR, MARSEILLE - LE POSTE A GALENE* 28 IT, TORINO - ESPACE* 29 IT, BOLOGNA - ESTRAGON* 30 IT, FOLIGNO (PERUGIA) - AUDITORIUM SAN DOMENICO* MAY 2009 01 MA, VALLETTA - MITP 03 TU, ISTANBUL - BABYLON www.youtube.com/watch?v=AHZLCj4UDBEwww.youtube.com/watch?v=rleZb_BCsK8

As Homer Simpson once said: It's like something twilighty out of that programme about the zone.
With great regret we inform you that Bonnie 'Prince' Billy is suffering from exhaustion and has cancelled his appearance at tonight's show at the MITP in Valletta. We were only informed of this early this morning.
Tonight's concert with local bands Brikkuni and Hunter's Palace will be going ahead as planned and we look forward to welcoming you there. For those attending the entrance fee will be just 5euro. Doors open at 8pm.
The Bonnie 'Prince' Billy show is to be rescheduled to a future date (possibly this Summer) which we hope to announce asap.
We are offering a full or partial refund which can be effected from tonight on presentation of ticket. If you do not make it, please contact us as from next Monday, 4th May 2009 via stagedivemalta@gmail.com or kinemastik@gmail.com. We will also arrange to be present at some cental location next week and will announce details asap.
