The possibility of a larger (Worldwide) tour next year grows then.....Makes sense really, they test out their new live set-up and then announce a tour in say, May/June?

It's Sonar's 10th birthday this year, and I wouldn't be surprised if they have approached them to play again. The festival has grown ever bigger since they were last there in 1998....

Subject: [Kraftwerk] A new interview from HÜTTER

There is an interview of Ralph HÜTTER on the edition of the french review "les inrockuptibles" of this week.

It had been made during the french concerts in september. I can try to make a translation, even if it contains nothing really new.

Quickly, what we can discover :

- The band is still (still !) at work, all day long (Cycling ?)

- They finished to compute all the old tapes. The first 3 records would be re-issued nextly (no date)

- Nothing about a new album of course, but it seems that there is no problem between the Band and E.M.I., wich have never refused to published any new material of the group

- A live recording can be issued at the end of the 2003 tour (no date either)

I hope you could understand what I wrote, english lessons are very far in my mind ...
