[kj] Does Killing Joke still exist?‏

Wrong.

They didn't 'just' cancel 5 shows, they cancelled 5 shows with uncalled-for
vitriolic comments about The Cult, Jaz disappeared, band imploded and put
out comments distancing themselves from Jaz, Jaz reappears and tells lies
about the original comments not coming from him...

This happening in the context of constantly cancelling shows, the excuses
getting weaker and wilder...now they're getting sick of the fallout. Oh
well.

This poses a number of responses, not least, what's wrong with One
Direction?
