If it's not on the hotline, it's proabbly a false rumour  :(

I guess you missed the last gig they did with Paul on march 5th 1999?

We are negotiating for three, maybe four gigs in Mexico. Nothing is confirmed yet, but one way or the other it will be decided in the next couple of weeks.... :)

Clive? Just wanted to know how did u feel here in Mexico, specially Aguascalientes (on Friday)

I know it wasn't what Arena expected but we just loved you came, there were a few true Arena fans but I can say for sure that you guys were terriffic. Lemme tell you here the people is kinda weird, you see, they didnt really know about Arena, not even prog rock... I mean, they're not used to see a guy with a mogg synth on their hands playing those killer solos, or Jon making his guitars sing by themselves, a scene monster like Rob and a catchy combo w/ Mick and Ian, so as you see they didn't cheer up becase they were shocked, they stayed until the end (people here if they dont like the show they just leave, otherwise eventhough they dont cheer up they stay because they like it) unfortunately venue staff sucked, they didn't know who they were dealing with.

We really hope you had a great time here because we did, and we loved it.

Thanx!!!

Actually we really enjoyed most of the gigs out there in Mexico (we've just got back!).... We knew that some of the audiences would not be familiar with Arena... that's ok... new blood!  :)

How lucky you are to see Arena twice!!!  I do not think that I will ever get to see them.  I wonder why Arena does not tour America?

Hmmm, a question for Clive, actually. I would have said costs, most probably, but then they play Canada, don't they.

It's a combination of finance and demand.... No one has offered us anything out there..... :(

You may (or may not, but probably may) be interested to know that I talk to a few people in the states and recommend Arena quite alot... Maybe in the near future you might get an offer... Obviously it wont be all my doing, but once a few people know, well, word gets around does it not? :)
