Or we might get lucky and get some interviews with acoustic perfomances here and there...

Or maybe the rehearsals will be in late september, and early september we get some interviews and/or showcases...

Just being optimistic  ;D

Haha, I'm sorry, but that is the greatest answere ever!! ;) (I guess it means "no".) GF has great sense of humour! I just love his answeres. But if you want him to answere your q's more politely, you should ask him about him and his playing, not about MK. ;)

Yes, I get annoyed when people start bickering on the forum or ask question to which you know no answer can be positive, just be happy that GF keeps the website. I have met him on several occasions, and GF is the NICEST GUY you'd EVER WANT TO MEET! 8)

Yes he is... And also his son. I had the chance to talk with Max Fletcher at the RAH and he was very kind.

Actually I made of "translator" because some italian fans where asking him things in a very funny english that he coudlnt understand... and many spanish people talk english even worse, I was able to understand them  :lol and translated their questions to him. We had a good laugh...

When he left with his dads he came and shake hands before he went. A very well educated and humble person.

Max is indeed very nice and well educated. Met him when I went to see BluesClub (Fineline project this spring). He was standing outside with John Illsley and William Topley and when I started talking to him he first shook hands to introduce himself proper.

In fact, I was about to write something similar - just thought about Summer Of Love in that same moment... it is quite unusual though to give away a song from a new set during rehearsal, so early...

So I did get it correctly  ;D (was just writing about it in another thread)
...Well, he's a big star now but I've been a fan of his for years. The way he sings and plays guitar still bring me to tears...
