With Talisman 1200 would have been on the light side and of course with others like Soul SirkUS and Axel Rudi Pell, that was between 350-1200 in Europe.

UK always has a nice following for me, been since 2008 since I did a gig there so I am expecting nice turn outs when I do return. I've laid low on most of my career items because TSO has been good to me, loyal as hell and of course it's auto pilot for me in terms of resting yet working, anyone who knows my range knows what I mean.

That said, I don't know where this 'huge following' thing came from, I've done enough festival gigs and theaters on our own to have a bigger following there than in the US any day which again, I can't say is too bad given I never had a hit single or Gold album to my (solo) credit. And I certainly do better than 'pocket money' in the end, otherwise I would have a day job by now!

But thanks Dan, for your wise and thorough synopsis of how well I do there given you've never attended a single show overseas....I guess YouTube showing more of the 'jam' or 'appearance' gigs I get thrown from time to time in between the past 3 years of touring with TSO can throw one for a loop...watch this space for something a little more interesting, hopefully sooner than later!


Sounds intriguing! :) But, watch 'this space'? Journey forum? :wink: :P :lol:


Ok, not 'this' space per se, in general, MR :)

Jeff, please feel free to start posting again....Always cool.

Also, any thoughts of getting Marco, Virgil, and a Guitarist of your choice to maybe rock out on another Soul Sirkus cd ? (knowing of course Neal might own part of that name)
