I had missed this from Rich's site:
Porcupine Tree's live album "Octane Twisted" was released last month. This documents "The Incident" live set with a performance at the Riviera in Chicago. Included on disc 2 are a selection of tracks from The Royal Albert Hall show in October 2010. The Special edition of this release includes a bonus DVD performance from the Chicago gig.
As winter sets in I'm working at home on a few things. I recently contributed to three tracks on an album by Radoslav Chrzan. The album is called "Four Winds" and also features the great Swedish drummer Morgan Agren. Details here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQZPm51zXfg .
More collaborations coming soon.
Also working on a track with my good friend and brilliant guitarist Aziz Ibrahim.
This week just starting pre production on an album for a very promising young artist.
Discussions are currently underway with Steve Hogarth as regards a European tour next year.
Hopefully we can put together a run of 8 to 10 shows and perform our album "Not the Weapon but the Hand" as well as other material. Would be a full band line up but don't know who will be joining us yet. Early days.
I'll endeavour to post more frequently than once a year !
Wishing you all a happy New Year.
