I guess they didn't get the memo that prog is dead and/or dying. I tried to find dates myself but it looks like they are in the process of setting them up from that "for bookings contact.." ------------- Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

I'll say! I'd guess it is going to be an instrumental gig vs. UK type blend of prog & fusion, I'll ask Goodsall. SOB just sprung this on his Facebook friends!! I'll post more as I find out!

Not a whole lot....he and his family moved to Minnesota (rural state, much like Devon) from Los Angeles to get away from the big-city scene. Of course, opportunities for blazing jazz-rock fusion are not as rich in the countryside! He tells me that he has done some gigs with a cover band (What a waste of talent!), has tried to hook up with an amazing keyboardist/multi-instrumentalist Mychael Pollard, and even was a DJ for a Halloween party! I would have LOVED to have been at that party! John's a really nice guy, very salt-of-the-earth type. He's needed a good band to anchor his talent, and he always seems to end up with Percy Jones in his projects, which is just fine! Adding Patrick Moraz is a masterstroke, but I don't know the other fellow. I'll keep PA posted on developments as I hear them! Of course, you should never go on tour without a new CD, right? Should be rather interesting, at least!! Happy Holidays! |

Good to know, maybe a recording will be done.
Sadly Brand X suffered from their association with Phil Collns because when he left or did not play with them, many people considered them to be inferior.
Must disagree, especially when they got back together and produced jazz fusion recordings that many consider some of the best ever done

As a guitarist youth from east Los Angeles.I was seriously very blessed to meet spectacular gentlemen like Patrick and his dear father and work,record at Mr.Moraz's mega awesome Aquarius Studios in Geneva,Switzerland;plus added serendipity with his dear friend,very wise,clever engineer Jean Ristori.( I learned soo much from Mr.Ristori !!) As fans of progressive rock and fusion might know,Aquarius Studios,truly was a serious creative magnetic for signed European progressive rock bands such as the Luzärn Swiss progressive rock band I was in called Flame Dream. Ich wünsche euch allen ein frohes ganz und es fantastisches mega rüüdig guten glückliches,gesundes und erfolgreiches positive Rutsch neus Jahr 2012 A blessed creative,boundless amount of wealth in health in 2012 to all. ------------- Ｄａｌｅ Ｈａｕｓｋｉｎｓ (858) 401-2973 (310) 293-0432 https://artistecard.com/Dalehauskins |
