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!!!
