21 may 2009 - Back in the studio soon


Hi and welcome to our fabulous summer!

Well, obviously I'm not talking about the UK when I say this. I'm currently here in a very wet and windy part of Buckinghamshire wondering if I'll ever get to cut the grass again.

Since the huge success of our two conventions, we as a band are currently enjoying some time away from each other. I miss them loads but luckily soon we will be back in the studio working on our new acoustic album.

We are all looking forward to getting the chance to rework some of our favourite songs from the last few albums. We have some great songs to choose from and I, for one, am very excited about the whole prospect of this album. It will be great for us to break the songs down and use the acoustic format in creative and unusual ways. It's going to be so much fun and we won't have the pressure to come up with new songs.

Then we get to take it on tour and show off our work.

Before this of course we will be playing a couple of shows in June. The one in Sweden and the one in Sofia Bulgaria.

Maybe the sun will come out and shine on us then.
Hope to see you at one of the shows.

Ta, ta.

Pete,


A Quick word from Mark....

While waiting for the sun to shine, I’ve started to twitter. I can’t promise how relevant my tweets will be to Marillion or how long I’ll do it before boredom sets in but if you want to follow my mindless drivel, my twitter name is markke11y.

See you soon

Mark

Some Other News From The Racket Store.

For those of you who don't yet own a copy of 'Somewhere Else' now is a great time to buy the album from the Racket Store.

We have put together a limited number of 'Something Extra' album bundle packs.
This pack contains the 'Somewhere Else' CD, 'Something Else' DVD, an album poster & a rather attractive 'Mouse Mat'.

Hurry over to the Racket Store as the first 200 orders will receive a 'FREE' Somewhere Else Car Sticker!

We have an extremely limited supply of these 'Something Extra' packs at the fantastic price of £12.99, so make sure you don't miss out - once they are gone they are gone!
