They advertised for it back in November and the ad was taken off the website before Christmas.
I don't understand why they make such a secret out of it every year and announce these RAH charity (!) events only about a month before they happen. :think

Those events are special and I guess they want to do it short notice to avoide reselling, maybe?

If there is at least a concert linked to the record, I guess the line band is going to be outstanding even MK is not playing. I'm sure he will be attending and see him at the RAH corridors will be amazing.

Definitely, I'll never learn to ask questions properly, LOL

Q: Hello Guy. I saw in social media that tomorrow the TCT concerts at the RAH are going to be announced, there is going to happen also an announcement of the record? If there is one concert related to the project I hope there is any chance to see MK and you on the stage, please say yes!

A:It’s not for me to say I’m afraid, but there are plans being laid.


That could means probably more than about the record annoncement than MK and him playing at any of the gig, but at least he didn't say no. LOL

By now, the announcement is very disapointing...

Still tuesday, thursday and sunday free, so if there is something to be included related to the charity record, it would be one of those days, probably sunday.

You beat me with a minute  :lol Just saw it. It is a charity for teenage cancer, so it is no surprise to me that they aim for a younger audience. I guess the link to Buddy Holly comes from the fact that the charity -money comes from people older than me and who probably, like me, have never heard about the artists announced so far. 

I will be happily surprised if Mark plays anything.

Take a look to other years bands... Last year they had Madness, Paul Weller and The Who! Also Liam Gallagher and Ed Sheeran, all names any person of the whole world would recognize. This years bands, only Kasabian rings a bell and I don't know what music they play at all...

Ok, so this is particularly bad? I don't know their strategy, maybe it is "very new and very old" this year  :lol  Of course I would love to see Mark on stage having fun, but I have more or less lost all hope :-\

I doubted a lot about how to post the question to Guy in order to have a good answer, I tried several options and looks like I finally made it right!

Looking forward to whatever is coming!

Maybe MK's final performance on a big stage?

Nah, if there is anything related to MK, he will be part of a concert related to that charity record they are recording, but I don't think it's MK alone.
