NEWS 02.11.06 - KINO MEMBERS IN IT BITES REFORMATION No doubt you will have read in the music press that It Bites has reformed with three of its original members (including Bob Dalton and John Beck of KINO), with the role of vocalist/guitarist being taken on by KINO's John Mitchell. This doesn't signify the end of KINO, but with Pete Trewavas currently busy with the recording of Marillion's 14th studio album and his associated touring schedule, and this new commitment for John M, John B and Bob, plans for a second album from KINO will be put on hold for now and reviewed in 2007. It Bites will be touring the UK in December, and also playing a showcase gig in Holland at the end of November: Sun 26 Nov - De Boerderij, Zoetermeer Buy tickets online from www.gigsandtours.com, and visit the It Bites website at www.itbites.com for more information (full website being launched soon).

At
the 2005 Classic Rock Society Awards which took place on Saturday 3 December,
KINO won the award for 'Best CRS Gig of 2005', with John Mitchell also
being named as 'Guitarist Of The Year'.
John,
John, Pete and Bob will be in rehearsals this coming week in preparation
for this Saturday's (9 July) Classic Rock Society gig at the Oakwood Centre
in Rotherham.
The
gig at the Mean Fiddler on Friday was ace! The set list featured most
of the album 'Picture', plus a few surprises in the shape of 'Plastic
Dreamer' from It Bites and '12' by The Urbane, with the encore featuring
'Afraid Of Sunlight' by Marillion, and 'Kiss Like Judas' from It Bites.
John Mitchell was suffering from a dose of flu but soldiered on admirably,
and the whole band were happy with the performance, with only a few technical
hitches which John and Pete glossed over with a bit of on-stage banter.
