Needs to find a better way to preach his message. i.e. Not through war or others!

But I tell you who hear me: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. If someone strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also. If someone takes your cloak, do not stop him from taking your tunic. Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back. Do to others as you would have them do to you.
—Luke 6:27-31. NIV
Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, "Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother when he sins against me? Up to seven times?" Jesus answered, "I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.
-Matthew 18:21-22

Might as well post them on here then. this is all over the internet (congrats fellas...)... NME News The Specials reunite for 2009 tour The Specials Coventry band set to hit the road next April * Dec 2, 2008 The Specials are reuniting for a 2009 tour to celebrate their 30th anniversary. The legendary ska band have announced they are getting back together to play a series of UK gigs next April. In an exclusive interview in this week's issue of NME, which hits newsstands tomorrow (December 3), frontman Terry Hall said that the band were playing in 2009 to celebrate their significant birthday. "It's the right time to do it [reunite] - we talked about it at 25 but we weren't together enough. Now we're all getting on and it feels comfortable again," he said. Original members of the band including Hall, Neville Staple, Sir Horace Gentleman, Roddy Radiation, Lynval Golding and John Bradbury are all confirmed to play the gigs. Hall revealed that Specials founder member Jerry Dammers is not set to join the band on the tour, although relations between the two parties are strong. "The door remains open to him," Hall said. The gigs will mark the first time the Coventry band have officially worked together since 1981. As NME.COM previously reported, members of The Specials did play a secret show at this year's Bestival under the Wobbly Lime Jellyle Terry Hall And Friends. Tickets for the tour go on sale at 9am (GMT) on December 11. The Specials will play the following dates: Newcastle Academy (April 22) Sheffield Academy (23) Birmingham Academy (25, 26) Glasgow Academy (28) Manchester Apollo (May 3) London Brixton Academy (6, 7) To check the availability of The Specials tickets and get all the latest listings, go to NME.COM/GIGS now, or call 0871 230 1094. To get the full story on The Specials reunion and read an exclusive interview with singer Terry Hall, check out this week's issue of NME, on newsstands nationwide from tomorrow (December 3).

Academys, eh? Could have been worse. Brixton Academy's a nice compromise between getting enough people in, and being able to see and hear at the same time.
I bet there's room for more dates and some festivals.
Still No ubergruppenfuhrer Jerry then, Roddy.
