After each song she gave the audience a polite thank you and some small talk. She introduced "Mo'Pop" before starting the song and anounced the last song before ending. Mini review and report by Senne Soli 16 August.02 Listen to Dot Live Dot Allison played the Benicasim festival in Spain a few days ago. You can listen or watch the video. She comes on after about 10 minutes, so be patient. Also it takes a while for it to load since the files are so big. Audio Video 31 August.02 The Word from Dot Dot will be touring the US in October. This comes straight from her. A fan on my Dot mailing list spoke will her at one of her recent UK gigs. 'We are science' is due out in the US in September on Beggars Banquet records.

According to the official Pukkelpop site she's not listed that i can see. The first site seems official too, so I'm not sure what's up Thanks to Senne 14 July.02 Dot gets 'Stung out' Here are the details of of Dot's new single, 'Strung out' which is due August 5 Mantra MNT 74CD Strung Out - Single Mix Stolen Kisses Sweet Surrender Mantra MNT 74CD2 Strung Out We're only Science (Slam Remix) I Think I Love You (Tenniswood Remix) Mantra MNT 74T Strung Out Strung Out (Radioactive Man Remix) WeÍre Only Science (Slam Remix) UPDATE! CD2 and the 12" are identical, it appears as though the label on the 12" is incorrect the 12' sleeve says I Think I Love You (Radioactive Man remix), and the record label says Stolen Kisses! It's actually the Tenniswood/Radioactive Man remix of I Think I Love You, which means the 12inch is exactly same as CD2 [Thanks to Matt Williams for this info] So apparently if you missed the ltd UK CD or didn't pick the Ltd French or Austrlain CD with bonus tracks, you will still get to hear to the Slam mix of 'We are Science' 31 May.02 Dot not on Massive Attack's forthcoming album / film score? 3-D ( Robert Del Naja ) from Massive Attack posted on the Massive Attack website "that the tracks they did (with Dot) won't be used on the album, but that Dot Allison might incorporate a song into a score she is working on" ( guess this means she will be doing a soundtrack soon ). 3-D also said that they will work again in the future without any doubt. Thanks to Senne 28 June.02 New single Apparently the next single will be "Strung Out" and will contain a Massive Attack remix. it will be released as 2 cd singles apparently and is due out on August 5th. Thanks to Ken KP 30 May.02 Limited version of 'We are Science' There is a limited version of the UK CD available in the first pressing. It contains remixes by Felix Da Housecat (Substance) and Slam (We're Only Science). The only way to tell the difference is that the actual disc it self has the cat. no. of mntcde1028. the artwork catalogue number is the same. I've only heard of one person getting this CD, so it must be very rare. amazon.com, amazon.co.uk, cdnow.com and ab-cd.com have a version of this ltd cd but it's a french CD. In this case, it does actually list the bonus tracks on the back cover, it's also ltd. the Japan version of the CD comes out on July 2. The Australia CD also has the bonus tracks. If anyone has a copy of the ltd UK version for sale please let me know. 18 May.02 Preview the new album For you listening pleasure, get a sneak preview of 3 tracks from Dot's new album, 'We are Science.'
