| Band Member Journal : An Ugly Day in Oxford |
| Spring has sprung and I've just about recovered from that mad weekend we had. As well as writing with Marillion, I was supposed to finally get together with John Mitchell this weekend, but alas, he has the flu - according to the note I got from his Mum, that is. So I won't be seeing him until his band, The Urbane, support us in Holland. Worth a listen by the way - one of the reasons I want to work with him is that it is not what you would expect from the guitarist from Arena. |
| Did anyone catch the two or three sessions we did on Radio for the Live album? I thought the acoustic version of 21st century worked well. I personally think we could do more of them - if you can think of a good DJ in your area, let us know! |
| I have recently been whiling away in my back room at home, working on some of my own songs, and developing ideas for what I hope to be a solo album one day, although, I'll probably end up with enough songs for two. I keep writing things, not quite finishing them, and carrying on with new idea's. Mainly because that is easier than finishing off what I have. I am getting about 10 of the songs into some kind of demo stage, at which point I'll have to work out how I want to record them. Ideally I want to play all the instruments and do all the programming, as I feel I work so much with other people, it would be nice just to have my own music for a change. |
| The Transatlantic Live Bridge Across Europe DVD is still in the editing / making it sound and look good stage, and should be out towards the end of the year. However there will be a documentary Making of the Bridge DVD/Video which should be on sale before the summer. We will obviously let you know when you can order that. |
| The question it seems most people want to know of me is, "Are their any plans for another Transatlantic studio album?" The answer is "Not in the near future." I personally would like to have a couple of years just really concentrating on Marillion as this is very important to me. We - like yourselves - feel that there is a buzz we're creating here, and we should keep it alive. I also know that Mike feels he cannot put any time in to Transatlantic for the near future as DT is very busy. |
In the mean time, I'll leave you with this thought.........
Can you guess what Barry is up to next........? |
