| 9/15/90 | Sands Centre | Carlisle | England | Circus Of Power | The last week of week of gigs in the U.K. were cancelled due to poor ticket sales. Neil Murray: “I don’t know what they told the press. The fact of the matter was the band simply wasn’t selling enough tickets. So rather than waste more money on trucking and everything else, they pulled the tour. The furthest we got in the UK was Leeds. Shame, I like playing Scotland but it was not to be. I remember Tony Iommi getting particularly despondent at this time. Pulling a UK tour was quite a humbling experience I imagine. He did tell me he felt like he was knocking his head against a wall. It did pick up a lot as soon as we got to Europe though but that just illustrated the intense frustration. Black Sabbath was on a rise in Europe but the two territories where it really, really mattered to Cozy and Tony – America for the money and Britain for personal reasons – was just not happening. In America, we felt a lot of that could be laid at the record company’s doorstep, but Britain was a bit of an odd one.” [from SABBATH BLOODY SABBATH: THE BATTLE FOR BLACK SABBATH by Garry Sharpe-Young, pgs. #322-323] |

| 11/8/90 | Le Zenith? | Paris | France | Circus Of Power | Cancelled Thierry Baudens: "The 11/08/90 Paris, France show never happened. I live at 100 kms of Paris and I have not the chance to see BS with Powell, because the first coming of Tony Martin in France was in 1994! Not before! If Sabbath was in France in 1990, I would have been the first person to see them!" |
