Hi everybody,
Because the reaction on publication of my email address has been so fantastic I have only just started to get this all organized. It‘s reading all your thoughts, ideas and questions. Because I got so many great way though for me to have closer contact with you all. And reply‘s you are the lucky ones you get mail back first.
Many of you are wondering why I don‘t come to the Popexplosion and the Charity. The reason for this is that they asked me to come on the last show day in Magdeburg. I was so shocked and run down by everything that I could not decide about it. Also I would feel very uncomfortalble being on the same stage as Benjamin, Eloy and Lee without performing together.
I love `em, and I understand everybody needs to go on with their lives but it hurts. Hopefully we will do some stuff in the future together, when the pain is less. Espesscially in the first month of the split-up I could not decide if I wanted to come.
I am doing a talk show in November to talk to all of you and to sing my favorite ballad of the Farewell album. ‚For a while‘. I hope it will be an intimate real show so we can talk about everything and about the future. It would be great if you can all come. At the moment I am talking to recordcompagnies for the future. The music that I want to make isn‘t that diffrent from Caught in th Act. The melodies are very important and the lyrics will be even more private. I want record compagnies to understand that I want to make real music with lyrics that are very real and authentic.
The last two months I felt both hurt and excited. It‘s like moving house/school, or when you leave your
parents to live on your own. I am happy that me and the guys feel still the same about each other.
That is and was very important to me.
Very exciting to me is that I can‘t wait for you all to hear my music. I hope you feel the same about it as I do. Because that is very important to me.
At the bottom of this letter I will send you my autogramm address. If you send a postcard with your address and an extra stamp I promise you I will send you something back.!!
Dear friends, Thanks for your love and support when I needed it so bad. I won‘t lett you down.
With love,
Bastiaan Ragas.
ps.nachste mal sol ich versuchen es auch in Deutsch zu schreiben .
