	Paul Chapman plays club gigs here in the Chicago area from time to time. I haven't seen him do one though. As for the Japanese tour......Simon Phillips and Neil Murray would be fun to see if the shows actually go on...lol

	COMMENT \| 10 to 1 odds that Michael Schenker will cancel these gigs... posted by : forest of impaled 10/13/2009 1:50:14 AM

	Oh wait, he makes some huge money in Japan. He'll make this set of cash cow dates and then cancel the next set of shitty US club dates.
