Updates & antibiotics
Thought I'd say hi, been invisible the last days getting better from this damn virus that nearly destroyed the last few dates of the UK portion. I woke up on the 1st of 2 days off with the feeling I was swallowing razor blades after the show in Bournemouth, I knew I had a smidge of what was going around on the bus but I thought I'd fought it off well enough...fat chance. Started antibiotics that night & even after 2 days of silence & hibernation, I felt the Birmingham show was gonna be a rough & indeed it was. Worries of the following night in London of course, as I had high expectations of knocking this one out of the ballpark...thankfully I woke to a smoother, soothing feeling in my throat & from there it was all about the regiments & warmup.

And HELLO LADY!! Could have quite possibly been the performance of the tour, from all of us!!! The bar was raised by the whole band & with sound firing full guns ablaze, I have never seen a crowd like that at any show in London....besides Queen

So, guess I can say I'm back & we're simply unstoppable now, it feels amazing, tonight since we're returning to a city we played our 2nd show at, we're changing quite a few things around. It will be a treat to those who were here the 1st night but more so, I have asked the band (so I NEVER have to read again 'they played nothing from ROR, or Generations, or Arrival, etc.,) that as much as possible & from now on, we do at least 1 song from EVERY (LP) album, Infinity to Generations...this begins tonight!

Hopefully as well I'll have more access in the next days, imagine at our hotel in London, £20 a day for internet, where I'm from that's $40 a day so I can argue with you lot!! Fuck that! This place is damn expensive, whetherv you're singing for Journey or U2!

WOO!
What a scare!

That illness decided to come at the right time
Glad you're feeling better Mr. Soto
:]
Take care of yourself!

Well, I'm late is saying this, thanks to computer problems but, I'm glad you're feeling better Jeff. I'm sure you sounded amazing, you always do!

Well Jeff did knock it out of the ballpark in London. The show was incredible and Jeff was nonstop as usual. You would have never guessed he had been sick.

But I have to agree about London being expensive. Our taxi from the train station to the hotel was over $40!! What the fuck is that!!! That was the one and only taxi ride we took. We became masters of the Tube in the short time we were there.
