Live 2008, what's going on, what's coming up Options

[SecretInsomnia]

Hey all,

I'm wondering what the guys are planning for 2008.
In 2007 both the long expected DVD and a new album were mentioned. But still we got no info about it. It's taking so long... Will they spent 2008 with 'only' touring then??

Also several persons talked about the 'ultimate Live experience,' happening this year. Does that mean The Night of the Proms concerts? I find it strange not much is announced till now.

A DVD is mentioned really a 10.000 times, since somwhere early this decade, the last time was at their last show in 2007. There was something with the new album and York in april this year.
But hey, still no news... What's going on...

Yeah, I'm really disappointed that we haven't heard any news about a new album. I can't see anything being released in 2008. Maybe 2009.

Unless they are planning to quickly release a new album or EP to limit the online leaks, because it seemed that everyone had a copy of SFBM before it was officially released in the states. Doubtful, but possible.

Does anyone know if the band did any recording this past April in PA as was previously rumored? Does anyone besides Ezzy Wokka know anything?

As I don't have any contacts with the band and haven't been in York this year (or ever), I can't tell you. (would be great if it happened!!!).

Also I'm still wondering about the dvd. I guess they still want it to be recorded somewhere this year. Will it be at one of the shows that has already been anounced? Let's take a look

Not counting the festivals (would be odd to record a festival show for your dvd) my only guess would be Paradiso Amsterdam. Or maybe they plan to release NotP footage? (they needn't to record anything at all , in that case ). But I guess that won't be full shows.

So please, PLEASE finally announce what you're up to, guys!
