| 28th June 02: Siouxsie was interviewed
on 'V. Graham Norton', Channel 4 UKTV | |
| 27th June 02 Dublin cancelled due to Severin suffering from tendonitious and told to rest his hand by doctors | |
|
22nd June 2002: It is announced that the Rockwave festival has been cancelled due to many legal and security reasons. | |
|
20th June 2002: Siouxsie was interviewed for UK TV (channel four) teletext. I have included the interview here . | |
|
The look ahead for the remainder of the year: Lots to look forward to with the Siouxsie and the Banshees' greatest hits released in September 2002, also a limited edition of the set will have a bonus disc. There are also plans for remastered albums and their related b-sides, a box set, and a compilation book of The File. A new Creatures Album due out in the Autumn as mentioned previously, and a possible NYC Roseland Ballroom 2002 CD, but this is more likely to make an appearenace next year due to the amount of work put into other projects. | |
| LA date added, the final date apparently.......check out the 2002 page for recent tour dates. Advert in the NME for UK dates. | |
| 16th May: 2nd London date added and Japan festival dates added, | |
| 8th May: Glasgow and Sheffield added, | |
| 6th may: Dublin, Ambassador Theater 3rd July, | |
| 3rd May: It seems the 7 Year itch is becoming a bit of a world tour!!! London Shepherds Bush Empire date announced, at least 2 more UK dates to be added soon | |
| 1st May: Siouxsie and The Banshees are to play the Rockwave Festival on the 1st July in Athens, Greece. | |
| 26th April: Tour programs sold out at the 2nd San Francisco night, so lets hope that the official Siouxsie site gets up and running soon and repints some more for the people who never got one and for those overseas. It's wrong that they should be on Ebay at $50, if the official site had been up this could've been avoided. | |
| 25th April: It seems the tour is more like old times than anyone could've imagined, not only are they doing a lot of their early stuff but reports have it that Severin has bashed his bass on the stage in anger and Siouxsie kicked a security guy in the head!!! | |

When asked if Sioux or any other Banshee would be doing any interviews for this tour (web / phone / press / TV / radio etc..), answer: nope! not until after the Summer, hopefully for the new (Creatures) album in the Autumn. | |
|
15th April: Siouxsie and Budgie were at an opening party for the Ghetto Club in London back in March, as recently reported in Boyz magazine. click here to skip to Roddy's site for pic! | |

The official Siouxsie website is starting to develop, an online shop opens on 17th April, no doubt selling the latest tour merchandise. | |
| New Creatures album hopefully out in the Autumn | |
