Jerome Reuter (Rome)

SPB: You're playing some anniversary shows this year and visiting some interesting places - How did you decide which countries to play in? 

Reuter: I have to admit that there is a certain amount of randomness to some of it, but we are trying to play most of the European capitals and we want to include as many exotic places as we can. I am also throwing in some solo dates here and there to really fill up the schedule.

We just played Jerusalem and Tel Aviv. Athens is next and then we're on to Bucharest. Other confirmed shows include Stockholm, Gothenburg, St. Petersburg, Moscow, Kiev, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Madrid, Rome, Bologna, Milano, Lisbon, Berlin, London, Cologne, Stuttgart, Leipzig, Luxembourg, Saigon...and we are working on many more. I'll be living out of the suitcase more than usual this year, which I don't mind at all. I am very glad that there seems to be a lot of interest for what we do out there at this moment. I presume we'll keep on adding a lot of dates as we go along.
