Hey

Rod was on BBC Radio 2 yesterday, Sunday Nov 8th on the Johnnie Walker show Sounds of The Seventies.

Conversation was about Rod's post Zombies band Argent and how Colin & Rod got back together again in 2000.

There may well be a new Zombies studio album in 2010 as well as another Hippifest tour of the USA.

All the best

Hey

We are back from our US/Canadian tour which went really well with Spencer Davies and the Yardbirds as opening acts for us. Lots of miles were travelled and the gigs were very well organised by our agent in the US.

Its very gratifing to see our live audiences growing every year and we will be back!

Now its time to prepare for our UK live dates in October and then Holland and Belgium.

Somewhere along the way we'll have to get going on our next studio album. Would be nice to have one out next year.

So much to do, and all good.

all the best The Z's

A splendid day and ITV2 showed bits of our set all over the weekend.

Hey last night we were awarded the Classic Album award at the Mojo Magazine Award.

This was for Odessey & Oracle and all four of us original members collected the award from
Super Furry Animals singer/guitarist Gruff Rhys who presented it to us.

Attendees at the awards included Manic St Preachers, Jeff Beck, Fleet Foxes, Elbow, Paul Weller  Mott The Hoople, Pulp, ZZ Top, Yoko Ono, William Bell, Seasick Steve, Jeff Beck, Joe Elliott, Chris Blackwell, Richard Hawley, and many more…..

I'm thrilled that we've received this award. It's so gratifying that 42 years after we made the album it should still seem so relevant to so many contemporary artists. Just at the ceremony, Paul Weller commented that O & O was his favourite album, and the Fleet Foxes said to us how inspirational they had found it.

Hiya

We will be posting full details on forthcoming tour dates fairly soon so bear with us.

We dont want wrong information to go out and things do get changed around by our agents and promoters.

A couple of weeks should be enough to get the info ready to publish.

All the best

It seems Rod's interview for Getcloser.com can only be accessed if you are UK based, so sorry about that to our non-UK resident  fans.
