This band sure works in mysterious ways. They were silent for years, and then finally a new website and album came along. Other than their site and this site, though, I heard very little (if anything) about Circles. Kevin Chalfant randomly joined the band with no explanation of what happened to Keith Mitchell. Their new site had a little bit of information but has now been abandoned for half a year. I remember rumors that they were going to tour, but that didn't happen (unless they played a couple of dates with no publicity whatsoever). I also remember hearing that Van had some health problems, cancer I believe. Hopefully he's doing okay, as well as the rest of the band.
Shooting Star is a great band but they're being quite elusive.
