Spring has not SprungBack to Diary Dates
The new Who album has been delayed, not cancelled. The release date I had hoped for in the late spring or very early summer was whipped from under my nose after three years of writing. Shows we hoped to do in the early summer seemed to fizzle, and we lost our drummer to Oasis until January 2006. All alternatives proposed, and which I have desperately considered, do not fit in with my current commitments. I am committed to record the music for my new story The Boy Who Heard Music. I am also completing my autobiography later this year. Sadly, this forces a postponement of the planned Who activity this year for some indeterminate time.I had lots of plans, but no hard schedule. And that is what has created this predicament. It’s probably my fault, because I work very slowly in the studio, and either no one believed I was actually recording, or they got tired of waiting. I should say that Roger has done what he calls sketch vocals on several tracks I produced, and the results are very exciting. But I feel I can’t tour any more with the Who without a new record. So until that record is actually in my hands, I must hold my breath and live in hope.
Ehrlich gesagt habe ich es nicht anders erwartet!
Zwischen den Zeilen sind 2 Dinge jetzt wohl klar:
1.) Es wird nie eine Who Platte geben. Wenn sie ihre jetzige Form nicht ausnutzen war es dann wohl alles. 2.) Sicher werden The Who auch ohne neues Material wieder auf Tour gehen. So in 1-2 Jahrne schätze ich.
Who cares?
