STRANGE THINGS ARE HAPPENING! - Chapter 13
Dear Breadheads:
Yes indeed! Strange things are happening as you can tell by
the most recent changes in our tour schedule. There are so
many factors involved in a major tour like this that it's
not too surprising that a number of changes will occur along
the way. Come to think of it, wasn't it John Lennon that said
"life is what happens to you while you're busy making plans".
Fortunately,
the last minute changes only caused postponements and not
cancellations of the many international concerts we have planned
(there's that word again) for the near future. In addition,
the postponed international dates enabled us to do a limited
number of concerts in the U.S. during the months of July and
August. I've been getting alot of E-mail from U.S. fans who
were very happy to hear that bit of news.
Yes, strange things are happening. We're considering the possibility
of a live C.D., perhaps a video as well. Granted it's a remote
possibilty at this point but we originally had no plans for
any new C.D. at all. So, again, just when you assume you've
got everything planned (there it is again), something happens
and BOOOM!!, you're running behind the train of life and trying
to catch up to the caboose. That's kind of what's been happening
to us except we're supposed to be running the train.
Speaking of recordings, for those of you who have voted for
your favorite song and album, your votes have not been sucked
into a black hole in cyberspace. I've been keeping a record
of the votes and will start to post the results of the poll,
along with updates, on our web site in the next few weeks.
So keep sending in those votes!
Well,
enough of that! Let's get back to strange things that are
happening. I recently received a very interesting E-mail from
a fan. It seems that there is a Larry Knechtel impostor running
around loose somewhere in the state of Washington. Now, if
some guy comes up to you and tells you he's Larry Knechtel,
make him sit down and play a piano. If he can't play every
lick from Johhny Rivers version of "Boogie Woogie Flu" and
knock your socks off with a solo version of "Bridge over Troubled
Waters", he's not Larry Knechtel.
I hope to see a lot of Bread fans in Vegas for our concerts
on the 4th and 5th of July. Your support can mean alot in
terms of future concerts. Well, bye for now but check in from
time to time. You'll never know what you may find.
The
best from BOTTS! :-D
