"I want to personally thank all of you for your messages of appreciation, it is always a great joy to get so much feedback on my albums and live performances.

"I also take this opportunity to answer a question that is found in the majority of your messages: "When are you going to play in my area?

"Please understand that if it was just up to me and the band, we would be playing everywhere at least once a year! Many people think that it is the artist who decide where and when to perform. Unfortunately, it is not always that easy.

There are several elements involved, such as availability of halls at the right time, some festivals or events happen at fixed dates and cannot be moved to accommodate artists' schedules, etc... Although we try to include as many cities as possible on each tour, there are some areas where we did not perform for a while because some of the elements were not there. I can only hope that we will be coming soon to areas that we missed on previous tours."
