Glass Houses

Been receiving a few emails lately regarding the Pete situation, and I just want to thank you all for your kind messages - not this time for Pete, but for the way you understand that even though I'd love to respond to some of the comments being circulated, and to put some of the speculation to rest, I've gotta bite my tongue and keep quiet.

If things behind the scenes aren't the way they seem on the surface (and no they aren't, cos they never are in any 'family') it won't help anyone if the family washes the shiiiit out of the sheets in public. As devoted fans we all care about the band, and the band are very humble at knowing how much you care and how much you want the best for everyone involved. That's the total truth. But knowing all the ins and outs of wossgoingon won't make any of the fans' lives easier/brighter/happier/richer. And in any case, in every family, the view each person sees depends on where in da house they're standing. And also on whether the light's out, of course.

As a dodgy old geezer once said. "There aint no Alice here, this aint no Wonderland".

Anyroad boys'n'girls, the new album's coming out soon - living proof that these fellas are still rock-ready! And look out for the artwork cos it's a photo of the band and crew relaxing on a day off during the tour. Nahhhh, of course it isn't. But it very well could be!

We are merely players

There's a certain feeling in the pit of one's soul that occurs half way between the ramp heading off the plane and baggage claim.

As long as I know I'm not crazy then it's ok. I'm sure it will pass with time.

Paul has sent me proofs of the photo shoot from yesterday. Looks like it was taken in the same house that Vin's shoot was done at. Very highbrow. They've airbrushed away the wrinkles and spots. Gave Andy a neck and made Vin look ten pounds thinner. Amazing what a good photog can do. It'll be a nice insert once it's cleaned up.

Should really unpack more and press my clothes for tomorrow.

Puts on 2112 instead.
