UPDATE FROM THE CHURCH OF DIABLO

Its a quick one, but an important one! As you lot like to be the first to know anything, I figured I should tell you that Mr Brett Scallions, former FUEL frontman, will be playing bass guitar in Circus Diablo. There is a news item up on the Circus Diablo website. Brett flew in to LA for a few days this week, and we are delighted that he is feeling this music as much as we are. He is a dear personal friend, and I am very happy that he is committed to this band. I have seen him sing in Fuel, and as a guest with Camp Freddy, and his voice will be an amazing asset in this band. I have also seen him play bass in his NY band, The X's, and let me tell you something ...... good looking, got a great voice, AND he can lay that shit down on the bass guitar!! This man has it all!!
So thats the news for now - more details as they arise. Dont ever say I dont let you guys know whats going on!!

Back soon

Billy

Billy, a couple of quick questions:
In pics of Drac studios in Circus Diablo media, Ricky is playing a guitar with Betty Boop on. Is that his? (betty boop fan, so's my grandad! the same grandad who loves Ozzy)
And, in one pic, there's a dog, it looks like a labrador. Is that Matt's dog?
(golden labrador owner and fan)
And, when is Tripping Forward being released?

cheers
Lisa

Great news Billy! Loved Brett in FUEL! Can't wait to see how the final piece of CD will fall into place and am even more excited for the new CD CD (tee hee) and the tour!

Glad to see that all that hard work had a great result!

Now.....your original comments regarding the tour didn't include the EAST coast? Any re-vamped plans to come to NYC (especially since Brett owns Snitch....hmmmm perhaps a show there? PLEASE PLEASE!!!) That would be AMAZING!

Excellent! Welcome to the party Brett!

I loved Brett in Fuel. This is awesome!

Hey Billy what did you think of Lost this week? I thought it was great!


Since Matt and Duff were guest judges on Nashville Star, it begs the question , Do you like any country music and who?
much Love, Terri
