    Hi Steve,
    The new wishing tree album is stunning and I thought the first one was great. Actually preferring it to some of the more recent Marillion stuff. Great sound.
    Cheers

    Hi Steve,
    I have seen (and heard!) one of the last official DVDs of Marillion on yesterday evening. Your sound is soooo beautiful(!!!), I got tears in my eyes again and again...!! Also I have heard the first Wishing tree album, but I still did not buy the new one! Well, perhaps in the next days..!! ;-)

    All the best, Frank 

    ...and by the way, the best guitar solo ever is "Easter", no way to top that from other musicians!

    Tired of crappy, jangly, sissified, ball-less pop being past off as Southern Rock?
    Then this is the show for you!
    FRESH Productions remembers when Southern Rock music used to mean something.
    This Saturday we are going to prove it in Winston Salem.
    Three bands. Heavy on attitude and chops, and not a twelve string hollowbody guitar, cover tune,
    or sissy fender amp among them!
     
    Last Stone Cast
    American Dog
    Automag

    Southern Rock the way it was meant to be played

    LOUD. PROUD. UNAPOLOGETIC.


    THIS AIN'T YOUR MAMAS' SOUTHERN ROCK!





    Event: Tobacco Road Music Series III featuring Last Stone Cast, American Dog and Automag
          ""Feel the burn of great music!""
    What: Concert

    Thanks for adding me. And thanks for everything over the years.

    On a slightly different journey over here in deepest Kilburn. Trying to find something organic through lo-fi Hurdy Gurdy recordings, chasing tunes as they come. Not entirely sure where it's going but should be interesting. Come and visit sometime ...

    Awesome Steve - just bought Ostara. Ooooooh yes. Funny, most folks sing along to the words of songs - I sing along to your guitar. Am I strange? Best wishes to Marillion and The Wishing Tree!

    The thoughts .. the intentions are colored ..




    But in reality .. sensations just draw ..




    If the truth was that nice smile ..




    I would not have to take care of the damage ..




    or the horror of the world ..




    Finding a place to feel me safe ..
