Dear All
We hope you all had a great summer. As you know we are gearing up for the release of our new album 'Less Is More' If this is the first you're hearing about it then where have you been?! Head over to www.marillion.com and check out full details.
We have one week of tour rehearsals left and we're looking forward to what we hope will be our most relaxed and spontaneous tour ever. It's also going to be a challenge for us to play musical instruments you wouldn't normally associate with Marillion. Wish us luck..
At the times of writing this we're happy to say that most of the gigs are either sold out or close to selling out so head over to www.marillion.com/tour and grab the final tickets and we'll hopefully see some of you out on the road. Sorry again to those of you who write to us from all over the world wanting to see a show in your own country - for our explanation on why we can't always tour the places we want to please look at our website; http://www.marillion.com/tour/info.htm
As with the Happiness Is The Road Tour 2008/2009, we will be recording most of the shows and putting them up for download on our site as soon after the gigs as possible. We hope you enjoy them.
See you soon!
h, Mark, Ian, Steve and Pete
NEWS FROM RACKET RECORDS
Some things we realised that you may not know about. Firstly our very own Mark Kelly has his own Twitter page - follow him as he often has some very interesting things to say! www.twitter.com/markke11y
We now have an 'App' for those of you who have an IPhone - go to the Apple App Store and search for Marillion and there we are. It includes, videos, puzzles, gig listings, exclusive wallpapers and more.
Finally - As you may or may not know we have a worldwide team of fan clubs.
You may have seen communications from us in the past where we talk about 'Web Members' as each fan club is called 'The Web'. Every year each fan club gives their members a free CD which comes directly from the band. A list of previous fan club CD's can be found here to give you an idea of the kind of stuff we do http://www.marillion.com/web/xmas.htm.
This year we are pleased to announce that for the first time we will be giving Web members a free DVD! This will be a DVD of the Cologne Happiness Is The Road Tour concert in 2008 - we're calling it 'Snow De Cologne'. Full track listing details will follow soon. So make sure that your membership is up to date or join before December 1st to guarantee yourself one.
