Unfortunately our show tonight has been cancelled and there is no other show here being scheduled yet. Bjork is ill - and actually most of us have been feeling under the weather for the past few days.
I suggested to Damian that we DO the show - without Bjork. Damian said: “Yes, let’s do a Bjorkaoke!”
What an idea!

Hope she feels better! Record the fans singing.

Oh poor Sheffield fans.! I hope everyone gets to feeling better. I recommend tea with scones and clotted cream….or maybe leave off the clotted cream though it is heavenly.

Sorry to hear Björk is sick. Björkaoke is an amazing idea though! Count me in the next time this happens!

I would be happy to see a Volta concert if Antony sang the whole time and Jonas played like he did on the Bachelorette version on his myspace page. Björkaoke……maybe I could enjoy that only after alot of drinking!

Please send her best wishes from the crazies.

^^ In the above I meant if Bjork couldn’t be there. I’m always happy to see a Volta concert! I do think there should be more Bjork/Antony collaborations though.

All the best and may Björk’s recovery be speedy! May all of you stay in excellent health!
…
Or at least may all of you be healthy by July 10th so that I can enjoy seeing you in Helsinki!

Hope she gets better soon. It’s a shame, ’cause you were all abso-bloody-lutely in Blackpool! Best gig I’ll ever go too. Your keys were brilliant, especially during Vokuro and Bachelorette, and the whole thing just seemed together perfectly. I was tempted to yell “I read your blog, Jonas!” at the start, but I thought it would seem a bit weird…It was a nice suit you had on too.
Bjorkaoke would be brilliant…you could organise a secret tour for people to come along to!
Incidentally, was it ’cause of Bjork’s illness that it took a while for you to come on stage?

Hope Björk and everybody feels a lot better. It wouldn’t be too bad of an idea at the end of the tour to have a Bjorkaoke gig or pre show performance. Most important is that everyone gets better as soon as possible!
Love and Warmth,
