some mistakes:

• It's not true as well that they weren't able to tour around 1995 - that was the yea I first saw them, and they toured a lot between 1995 and 1998.
• dave pugh joined the band after the recording of wayward sons
• the swords-single was the first WITHOUT martin on vocals, not the last one with him.
• drummer jay stayed in the band longer than walkyier, he played the first gigs with kevin on vocals
• martin gave several reasons for leaving skyclad (most often citing financial difficulties), but the band not willing to tour south america was not among them afair.
• promotion for "a semblance" as absolute zero, there was no support from dreamcatcher (the label) at all. some fans helped to spread the word though.

Change them to what you think though. I'm doing this all by info I can find on websites and interviews. I wasn't into them when any of this happened, being somewhat of a Johnny-come-lately. For point four, That's the reason Martin gave as the 'final straw' in an interview with a South American zine. I've never been able to track down 'Swords' so I presumed they used the bonus-track version of the single which had Martin on vocals. if it was a re-recording then I apologise.

Please, add this stuff. It's so hard to find detailed info about this band. --KharBevNor 29 June 2005 13:41 (UTC)

I've just added the Infobox, but i cant seem to get rid of the 200 above the "folkenon" band pic. Also it may be good if anyone could add the band logo into the area above the band pic. I would but i dont know how. cheers. Dave.T 18:08, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
