I saw this table by artist ‘Günther Uecker’ Whilst running in Linz, Austria along the Danub. It’s amazing in actuality. I tried as best I could to capture the true imposing nature of the sculpture but it was quite difficult to really do it justice.

This is from a bar in Vienna.  It’s in an area a bit like Kristina, a place that enjoys a sort of political amnesty. It was a great show, we played ‘Ultravox’s’ ‘Vienna’.  Needless to say it was most appreciated by the locals.

Unbelievable!! the rain seems to be following us through the latter part of the tour.  Yesterday, it threw down in Zürich after what was one of the most beautiful days off that we’ve ever had.  Now after a fair weathered morning  in Linz, it’s once again CHUCKING IT DOWN!!  Ah well, I’ll just have to sing louder, that’s all there is to it.

After having so much fun in Vienna where we had a special treat for the fans, we are now in Zurich with what promises to be a corker tonight.  See you there.

We are here in Zurich where we’ve been for the last couple of days.  What an amazing city, what an even greater country, I love it here.  Today we will play at the ‘Dolder Eisbahn’ which is a venue on the hill.  There’s an outside venue we normally play at with a museum around it but apparently it’s being renovated.  We were out shooting yesterday and the beauty of this place is breathtaking.

Tonights show will be great.  I’m looking forward to playing and spending a lot more time here.  Bye for now,

I want to say thank you to all of you out there who have been supporting the ‘System’ tour. You’ve turned out in your thousands with incredible support and I want you all to know that it is much appreciated. We are in Prague at the moment, we arrived early this morning from Hamburg. So far the shows have been a dream and with the new band of Marc, Marcus and Steve, things couldn’t be better. I have to say that this is quite honestly the most talented and nicest, sane group of people I have ever had the good fortune to work with in fact, it doesn’t seem like work at all. Such is the advantage of playing with truly great people.

I hope you all like the look of the new site, all of my friends at ‘Magnet’ have worked really hard to and I think they’ve done a fantastic Job. I’m sure they would like to hear from you if you feel the same, if you don’t then keep it to yourselves (just kidding).

Last week, I sang for the presumptive Democratic nominee (God, that sounded so uncharacteristically political of me) and I have to say it was the highlight of my professional career. I sang the Sam Cooke song, ‘A Change Is Gonna Come’. As I walked of stage, he embraced me and we talked for a few minutes, just the future president, his number one secret service guy Bob and I. I will never forget that for the rest of my life. It will be a story I will hopefully tell to my children’s children ….. the day I sang for and was embraced by the man for all seasons. I’ve made a video to the song which was recorded and performed by the great David Foster (the most talented person I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with, a truly humbling experience). the video is being edited at the moment and was shot by a talented young photographer/film maker called Nabil Ekerland. As soon as there’s something to show, you will be the first to see

Also, I have been heavily back into my photography and will be posting a ‘though my eyes’ perspective of my travels and the tour. There’s already some images from Lithuania (Vilnius) to kick things off. I hope you like them.

Peace,
