Hey
everyone! News News News:
First of all our upcoming unplugged CD "Acoustic Stuff"
is in the mix!!!
It took a while longer then expected, but that's mainly because we went
a bit nuts with it and decided to make it a crossover between unplugged
and orchestral stuff, and as always, we did anything on our own... from
the arrangements/orchestrations to the actual recordings, so there will
be a few surprises really soon!
Then we'll be playing with legendary TOTO
on July 6th, which will be fun and is a great honor!
Also, the
rumours are true:
We're going to JAPAN in October/November!
We're working very close with our friends from Erkonos to make this possible!
As soon as the dates are final, you'll find them in our tour schedule, but
so far we can say that we will definitely be in Tokyo,
Nagoya, Osaka and Kobe! Arigato!
We wish you
all a rocking Christmas and a rolling New Year!!!
Thank you for your continous support, kind words and help throughout the
year!!
We'll be back in 2007 with new CDs and a few cool surprises!!!
