Pat Lee of www.dreamwaveprod.com is interested in working on it !!!!!!! ( well he’s my fav artist so let me get excited. ) a dvd with all the video’s ever plus loads of other stuff will be put out at some point later this year also. talking of video’s BBB is up for an on-line vote at mtv (US). it’s been on other threads but at some point please go vote for us as it’ll really help us out in the states. isle of wight, glasto , reading and leeds are the only european shows we’re doing this summer , i heard of an ash board event at reading might be happening, i’ll show up with some blue label if it is. that’s it for the moment. laters dmh.
