IF YOU LOOK YOU CAN SEE MY UNDERWAY
REM tour began Friday in Lisbon, where we spent a week rehearsing, it was great to get to know the city...I love a place that's sunny all the time and has a rock audience that tends to go apeshit on cue...but then again, that could describe all of Spain as well (well, it's not always sunny in Galicia, is it??)In any case, we can conclude that playing music on the Iberian peninsula is a craft rewarded with love...fervently! Also, my friend Rafaela was kind enough to show Dominique and I the sights--thank you...Lisbon was followed by an outstanding night in Madrid, with an intense, sold-out crowd. In Barcelona's main newspaper this weekend an article I wrote detailing the history of me being a fan of REM appeared--a full page piece with color photos...I am honored to be officially translated into another language for publication...I can say on my next CD sleeve 'Ken Stringfellow has been translated into over 1 language'...only if you count the fact that I have been translated into Canadian.
This week on Itunes Universal Music will offer a sampler of their download-only artists, a bunch of tracks for the price of one track, including one of the songs from the KS-WaFlash EP. It will be available starting Tuesday January 11.
