Dead or Alive cancels tour
For one band, the 2008 Regeneration Tour is over before it even gets started. Dead or Alive -- led by the always eclectic Pete Burns -- has dropped out of the tour due to an illness in the band, according to Regeneration officials.
Instead, A Flock of Seagulls will fill in for DOA on all the tour's West Coast dates. (Seagulls was already slated to handle all the East Coast gigs.)
