Hi Ann,

thanks for your post,

the German-based 'official' (???) website is also alive again, with the German-only 2014 dates:

http://www.chrisrea.de/

This is the only update on this site since 2010 (!).

best regards
Andrey

You can find this date back on ChrisReaCom, also for tickets.

Hi Ann,

this sounds strange, as I found the tour poster for the Prague back yet in March.

As far as I remember, Salzburg was the latest addition to the tour schedule, prior to that Prague date was the opener. Zurich and Monaco dates were also added later.

best regards

Hi Andrey,

Did you read the article...?
It is written today, weird. Maybe the Tsjech's missed it? Just saw it.
And it's strange that Monaco isn't added on the site.

I get the impression that Chris vary the songs from the upcoming tour with respect to previous
My impression is based on the band is rehearsing hard seems
Hope not wrong

I feel quite lost in what direction this all will go.
I think there was a plan that was realistic, but the record labels were making trouble.
So no project, only "a best of tour", great, but I would like more openess what to expect.
Chris said he will do songs in a new way, but only small parts. not really news.
He proably does save the Tour, by making great music, like he always does. But his musical direction at this moment? I haven't the slightest idea. :?
That is what gives me this lost feeling.

Thanks Veherny for such an inside information.

I bet Anto Drennan still remembers playing 89-91 stuff with Chris during his Naked Truth tour...
And Kirt Rust may recall playing Stony Road material live in 2002-2003...

To be serious, I expect only one new song and this would be a La Passione tune.
