22 May 2007 - A Little Favour
Hello again! Greetings from Poland!

I mentioned yesterday about more news from the tour - well, this is to thank everyone who has attended the Somewhere Else Tour shows so far. It's turning out to be my favourite Marillion tour ever. The response from the people has been more intense and affectionate than ever with some truly outrageous audience vibes. I won't name the stand-out shows because, to be honest, they've all been brilliant, but I guess you KNOW who you are (eh, Montpelier?). As you may have heard already, we've been changing the set list with each gig and also throwing in the occasional request, so the crowd have been truly involved in the shows. This seems to have lifted the vibe even higher.
Could we ask you one more little favour? Our next single Thankyou Whoever You Are/Most Toys is released on June 11th in both the UK and Holland and you can pre-order all 3 formats from HMV and Townsend Records (UK), and Muziek Kopen (Holland).
With your help we can go Top 10 again and become bona fide pop stars!
Ha ha ha. Well, I'm laughing but the truth is that a "hit" is the very best way to get our music into the ears of the uninitiated and add to the "family". D'ya reckon you can beat You're Gone?..
Love and handstands
