...we are back from the Jack Daniels Rocknight dates and the name kept what it promised. All but one show was sold out and accordingly the crowds response was fantastic. We are still going to collect pictures of both tours which will be presented to you shortly right here. Now we have some time off until December 12th, where we are heading off for the UK, supporting Machine head. Check out the tour schedule right here.
At the moment we are a bit short on merchandise. Most of the shirts were sold on tour but a small amount of shirts and windbreakers are still available.

Oh right, German soccer team has qualified for the World Cup;-)

Varied labels showed an interest in releasing "3". Concrete decisions are not made yet. For the moment all we can do is wait and see what's coming...
update 03-08-2001
...the multimedia part for the "Youth" single is finished and it is a killer: videos, massive live and studio shots, varied audio tracks and the whole thing packed into a decent design. A big Thank You to Markus for the realisation and to Christian for the tons of pictures. We do not know exactly when it is going to be out but you will be informed in time. firstly here are some screenshots.
After all the hard work we are having a couple of days off until the Bizarre Festival. Steffen is heading for the south of France, Claus to California, Axel to Spain, Jan-Hendrik to Portugal and Jens is going to take care of his tattoo shop. Due to our vacation the relaunch of the Thumbpage will be a little bit delayed, but we are on top of it.......enjoy the great weather. See you later..........
