Hi everyone! I
just want to share with you what a great tour I am having here in USA.
It feels more exciting than any other for various reasons. One of them
being that there is so much material to choose from that we can't
really go wrong. If we had our way we would (and could) play for about
four hours. The new material is great to play because there is so much
one can do to it but still keep the 'meaning' of the songs. I have
heard some of you say that Sacred Love is a grower. The same applies
to us when we're performing these songs which is more fun and
challenging that I can remember. The songs are evolving daily which is
what it's all about. The mood in the band is fantastic and Kipper has
me in fits of laughter every day. I have to pinch myself every morning
to remind myself what a lucky m**********r I am. I can't wait to see
you!
Thanks to Dave and Wendy for keeping a great site going. It is fun for
me reading and responding to your questions every day. I also really
enjoy reading the forum which always brings a smile to my face. As you
can imagine being on tour keeps me away from my family which is tough
but it feels like you guys are kind of like that for which I am
grateful. It also helps keep me sane. So please keep your Workshops
coming. I love them.
I am also excited about the launch of Shapes at Joe's pub in NY on the
4th of March. It should be a great night and I am sure we'll have some
fun (as usual). Sometimes my music sounds quite deep and perhaps too
soul searching I know, but those of you who know me know I am just a
regular guy who has a (warped) sense of humour just like you do.
Not much to report on Third World because I am focusing my attention
on Sting's tour and the release of Shapes. Some of you know that my
intentions on the 1st, 2nd and 3rd albums are not commercial. They are
actually intended for you and you only. Anything else I have always
seen as a bonus. I am not in it for the money, just trying to make a
spiritual connection with you. Do I sound wacky? Perhaps I am.
Finally, thank you for all your support. You know it means the world
to me and gives me a reason to carry on playing music.
I love you all,
