Thanks for the post. Although I'm not in London, I've been watching out for quite a while now hoping for a new album and possible US dates. Glad to know that someone on the ball is keeping us informed.

This is a really late reply (Sorry!)

Apparently they have plans to return to America later in the year for some club dates. If I hear any more about it I'll be sure to post though

The Peel is quite a small venue so you get really close to the stage. and YDH crowd surfed - tho they dropped him O_O



i took about 114 pics, but not all fo them came out so good - i'll post more plus some fan cam clips tomorrow - am a little sunburned after the Dano festival gig >_< and quite tired.

were any other soompiers at either one?

I went to the gig at the Peel and it was really really good! Looks like you were at the other side of the stage to me. 8D

What did you think of Tomikita btw? I really liked them. I'd heard them beforehand but it was good to see them live.

Everyone playing that night was so nice!

Tomikita were excellent too, though I enjoyed them more at the Dano - I'm seriously considering adding their new korean album to my list of things to buy

I hadn't heard of them at all before excpet on the inside cover of the Yoon band's 7th they have a thank you, so i guess they are all good friends

I hope they come back too - Yoon abnd and Tomikita made a good evening for music

If only I were still studying in London.

I'd give anything to experience YB live.

Sigggghhhh.

Yoon Do Hyun Band are extremely talented and entertaining.

They were in London? I holiday there sometimes!

gah, my luck is horrible!

Yoon Do Hyun need more people loving them in my opinion. Yoon Do Hyun speaks great english you know, and his voice... it was like he was born to be a rockstar!

Yoon Do-hyun to Step Down from TV and Radio Shows
2008-10-31



Singer Yoon Do-hyun recently announced his intention to step down as the host of "Love Letter with Yoon Do-hyun," a popular live music and talk show on KBS 2TV, as well as his FM radio show "Yoon Do-hyun's Music Show."

Kim Young-jun, the president of Yoon's management agency, said Yoon decided to focus his career on his upcoming eighth album as well as a nationwide tour that is scheduled for the end of the year. Kim also said Yoon needs time off from both shows as he is planning to launch a U.S. tour starting in March next year. Under the decision, Yoon will take part in the final pre-recording of the TV show at the end of November.

Yoon, who has been hosting the popular TV show since April 2002, says he was sad to leave and thanked his fans for their constant love and support over the years. Meanwhile, singer Lee Seung-hwan has taken over Yoon's radio show since early October.
