Speech and live band performance planned Cancelled due to health problems |
wonderfulworld.demon.co.uk |
A tour was planned for summer 1998 to promote a drafted album (which was slated for April 1998 according to John in the Aahs World November 1997 interview). Sadly, it didn't take place due to John's health starting to decline.
Since Scatman John is no longer with us, who will now carry his torch when it comes to live touring? Will there be a Scatman John tribute band?
BBC...British Broadcasting Corporation - British public broadcasting network that broadcasted the Scatman performance on Top Of The Pops.
DVD...A DVD that was reportedly gifted to YT user Mei Clover by John's widow Judy Larkin - including the Jazz Bakery show (which displays the concert promo during a cutscene) and the appearance at the NSP convention 1995.
NRK...Norsk rikskringkasting - Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation - broadcasted two Scatman appearances (1995-02-17 & 1995-04-08) on Norwegian TV and hosts rewatches on its official website.
NRK interview...During the 1995-02-17 interview on NRK, John mentioned he had been on a promo tour in Germany, Denmark, Sweden, Norway and possibly Finland.
setlist.fm...A wiki that documents setlists of concerts by countless musicians and artists - as for Scatman John appearances, it is an unreliable source as it claims concerts to take place on unrealistic dates and locations without specifying an authentic source.
VIVA...Videoverwertungsanstalt - Video Processing Institution - German-European music TV station that broadcasted two Scatman appearances (1995-02 & 1995-04) and a Scatman documentary (1996-12-01).
VIVA interview...During the 1995-02 interview on VIVA, John mentioned he had played a concert in Munich the day before and in Copenhagen.
YLE...Yleisradio Oy - Finnish Broadcasting Company - broadcasted two Scatman appearances (1995-04-13 & 1996-11-14) and hosts rewatches on its official website.
YT...A video sharing platform which has several Scatman video and audio uploaded - An upload of the Japanese Route 66 performance states in the video description, it took place on Sep. 4th in Yokohama.
An upload of Mariah Carey's performance at the 1996 Grand Prix Golden Disk Award mentions in the description, it took place on March 12th at the NHK Hall.
An YT upload of John surprising an impersonator displays the date in the video description.
Uploads of artists appearing in the same episode of Power Vision as John mention Karlsruhe as the location.
