Here is the new Thunder V-Blog. We have a couple more shows in the UK supporting Thunder. Manchester, London and Sheffield. Everything is going great. I did get quite a bit of grief from our British crew about how I pronounced 'Bath' in the V-Blog. Viva Le Difference!!!

THUNDEROUS
Just finished the first two shows with Thunder, Newcastle and Glasgow. I have to say we are playing really well. The crowds have been really supportive. Thanks to John for coming to the Glasgow gig. Today we are in Birmingham,having a day off. Tomorrow we are off to Wolverhampton.
I will keep you posted on how it's going. So far so good. The photo is me on the way from Glasgow to Birmingham.Thanks to Sir Richie Kanobi for the pic.

_______________________________________________________________Here is a new V-Blog from the last run. The live footage with the fire-twirlers was from the Hard Rock Hell show. I also put in some footage of the Tamworth soundcheck and the footage of the signing was also at the Hard Rock Hell gig. Thanks to everyone who came out to all the shows.
We start the tour with Thunder in about a week. Should be fun. See ya'all out there.

BACK HOME
So we finished the Hard Rock Hell run and we all back home. I want to thank our new tour manager Greg and tech Ollie for making it really easy for the band to do what we do best.... play. Also, thanks to Sharon at Factory for setting up this tour and the one that is up-coming with Thunder. She and her team are great.
I go back to England in about a week to start the Thunder dates. I will post them here as soon as I can figure out how to get to that side panel on the site without having to bug Bob The Web Site Guru. I am confident I can figure it out. I also have some good video footage I will post as soon as I can edit it together. Until then enjoy the fab foto of us with JJ french and Mark Mendoza from Twisted Sister.

BUTLINS
Today is the last show of this run with Lauren. We are at the Hard Rock Hell festival in the Butlins, which is on the English coast. I know this because I can hear seagulls out my window. We drove from Hertford last night. It took about 4 hours and when we pulled up it was pitch black and really cold, I can only assume we can see the water from here. It's kinda like being back in Miami on the coldest day in history!!
The show today should be great we are on a bill with some classic bands; TWISTED SISTER, GIRLSCHOOL, VIXEN etc. I hoping to get a new V-Blog up as soon as I can edit one together. The photo is us at the legendary JB's in Dudley.

LONDON
The Los Producers event was fantastic. I want to thank everyone who came and all the people who were involved in making it a rousing success. Lots of money was raised and lots of 80's hits ruined.
Off to London tonight to begin the next run of shows with Lauren. I will have some footage to put up as soon as I get there.
