^ Back to top | > Back to News Archive Porcupine Tree Rumour Confirmed!|June 19, 2002| Hi everyone.......It has been a while since I have posted as things here have been in "flux" and I was not able to give a complete picture as to what I was to be doing next. We had planned a "Wesfest" for this August, but over the last few months an opportunity has arisen that will postpone Wesfest for a while. As some of you May know...the band Porcupine Tree, lead by a great friend of mine, Steven Wilson, was signed to Lava/Atlantic and is due to release a new album this year. Steven and I began discussing over the last few months the possibility of me becoming a part of the Porcupine tree touring lineup to add guitar and vocals to the live show as the new album is heavier than the last ones. As many of you have heard these rumours, we have had to keep them quiet as when there is a major label involved - there are a number of hoops to jump through be before a decision like this can be finalized. Well, as of now I will meet the band in NYC in July and go through a few rehearsals... and if the combination works, I will be out on tour with them for the US dates and hopefully from then on. ^ Back to top | > Back to News Archive Dreamcatcher Records Releases Fly Boy single|June 4, 2002| Dreamcatcher Records has finally released the Fly Boy CD single. You can now order the cd directly from their web site. ^ Back to top | > Back to News Archive Fly Boy Single|April 5, 2002| The Fly Boy cd single is being released on April 15th. If you order the cd single from Dreamcatcher Records's web site, you'll receive a second cd free! The idea is to send the second one to regional or college radio stations in your area or to just give it to a friend to turn them on to the music. We'd love to take credit for this marketing idea, but it was actually suggested by Lucy over at Marillion headquarters - Thanks Lucy! As soon as the single is released, we'll put up a link on our Order page. ^ Back to top | > Back to News Archive Wes Playing With Sister Hazel|April 5, 2002| For anyone in the Orlando, Florida area - Wes will be filling in on bass for Sister Hazel's gig tomorrow night (April 6th) at Universal Studios Orlando. Show time is at 8:00pm. For more information, call (407) 363-8000. ^ Back to top | > Back to News Archive A Message From Wes|February 19, 2002| Hi everyone, just wanted to let you all know that the time has come for Fish and I to part ways. We had a great three years working together, but the situation has developed that Fish is involving himself in projects that I can not afford to be a part of. His concept of timing for the writing of his new album and his ideas of the one off gigs and conventions, would basically mean that I would have to be in Scotland on his farm at his beckon call for almost 7 months and this I can not do. I realize that many of you were looking forward to the new creative directions that we were heading in, but Fish was really not interested in having a collaboration that did not involve months of development, at his pace, at his studio, on his farm in Scotland, so as I have a life here that I can not give up for this kind of project, we will not be working together.
