05.30 - Now KasimInfo.com is being moved to a new server too! As this will still be hosted by the same company there won't be any downtime of the site but any new additions to the website (including this item) will not be moved across. Therefore if you see the old front page of the site with the message "KasimInfo.com was last updated on 01/21/05: 01.15 EST" then the site is on the new server but I have not uploaded the changed files yet! This change should take effect within the next one to two days so until that time the messageboard attached to KasimInfo.com has been disabled so that all messages are carried forward to the new server.

Friday 21st January 2005
01.15 - According to this thread Kasim Sulton expects to still be playing in Movin' Out at Easter!

Wednesday 19th January 2005
01.15 - Kasim Sulton will be playing this coming Sunday's (23rd) matinee performance of Movin' Out at The Richard Rogers Theatre.

Monday 17th January 2005
01.15 - Currently on E-bay there is a copy of Kasim available. The opening bid is $3.49 with no bids to date and the auction ends on Wednesday. Also on E-Bay is a photo of Kasim Sulton from The Liars Tour with a starting bid of $12.99!! Not surprisingly there are no bids to date. The auction ends on Sunday. This photo was previously listed for $18.99!
01.00 - Unfortunately both E-Bay auctions that were listed in this Blog last Monday for copies of Lights On came to a close this weekend with no bids being placed.

Kasim's new look?!
Kasim Sulton?

Saturday 15th January 2005
18.30 - There was an article about Kasim's work this past week with Rick Reynolds in North West Florida's Daily News newspaper. Two large scans of the article have been added to the Press section of the site. Many thanks to Carrie Knife for these scans.
06.30 - Apparently Kasim Sulton has a new career!
06.15 - There's a photo of Utopia and Kasim receives a mention on the front page of TotalMusicmagazine.com. As it will disappear at some point, it says:
"Coinciding with the DVD release of Utopia Live In Boston we get the lowdown on what really happened in camp Utopia, all those years ago, straight from the horses mouth (so to speak) by tracking down elfin bass player Kasim Sulton and mercilessly grilling him via e-mail"
So that means that within the space of two weeks Kasim has been described as both "elfin" and "mosquito shim monkey"!
06.00 - Unfortunately the server problems on the KasimInfo.co.uk section of the site are worse than they first thought so that hosting company are moving the site to a new server. It means that that part of the site is still down this weekend but hopefully it will all be okay for when the site fully opens to coincide with the release of the Utopia Live in Boston 1982 DVD in the U.K. on 24th January.

Friday 14th January 2005

Currently there is nothing on KasimSulton.com about this gig. Many thanks to Dorren for this info.
13.00 - Unfortunately the KasimInfo.co.uk section of the site is currently down. This is the section of the website that mainly hosts the photos and videos. Hopefully this will be rectified soon.

Monday 10th January 2005
01.15 - Currently on E-Bay these are two copies of Lights On available:
This auction ends on Saturday and the opening bid is 5.99 with no bids to date.

Both the Gigs and the News sections of the site have been updated with the details and tickets are still available for both performances.

Monday 3rd January 2005
10.30 - Both KasimSulton.com and KasimInfo.com are listed on this website about John Oates from Japan. Using Babel Fish Translation to translate the description of the sites says about KasimSulton.com:
"The original member of band Utopia which ??? has led the web sight of - mosquito shim monkey ton. The song lighter/writer, Singer, as a prayer the talent rich artist. H & if you mention ????? of O/COS tour, the kana which is understood? (English)"
KasimInfo.com is described as:
"The fan sight of the mosquito shim monkey ton (English) about may call official contents have been complete almost very. In the mosquito shim fan it is HP which cannot be removed."
It's probably the first time that Kasim has been described as "mosquito shim monkey ton"!

Sunday 2nd January 2005
12.45 - Another Meat Loaf festival has been found for Kasim! Many thanks to Rachel Saunders for this link. It's on 18th June in Dublin, Ireland and they are co-starring with Status Quo. Tickets are not on sale yet. The newly re-vamped The Gigs section of the site has been updated with a link to ticketing. Hopefully this new style page will make it easier to make travel plans.
12.00 - Kasim Sulton has been mentioned in a few comments about the Utopia - Live In Boston 1982 DVD on the BeyondAwizard mailing list in the past few days. Some of the comments were:
"More than an hour of the boys yackin' 'bout everything under the sun. What fun. And pretty insightful. And intimate. Kasim is so genuine when he discusses his return to the band after his first foray into solo-artist hell."
"Who'd have thought that Todd and Kasim would be doin' another amazing tour together, of Liars, 22 years later!"
"Those interviews touched my heart. To me they all spoke truth especially Kasim. That is after all what rock and roll all about isn't it?"
"All I remember about the Suits Tour were the shrooms, a VERY fat chick walking up front and physically moving the table next to us with her ass just as Kasim sang (through an almost uncontrollable laugh) "when she walked in the room...""
"The interviews look pretty current. Wasn't that interesting hearing Kasim's story on when he first met Todd? It was pretty funny really."
