*3rd November*
HeLlo! how are you? I'm very good, it's Friday and I'm happy! There are just 17 days to go till Black & Blue and ten days to go till the Boys come to SPAIN! I hope it wouldn't be too cold on 13th because here the weather is getting colder...

Some days ago at MTV AJ said some stuff about how the next tour is going to be, it's not officialy confirmed but I'm sure the official one will be like this. According to AJ the tour will start on 23th January in Fort Lauderdale, FL. First they will be touring for eight weeks in the US, then they will take two weeks off and after that they will continue their tour around Asia and Australia. After a break they will go to Southamerica and will come to Europe. And to end the tour, around November 2001 or so they will be 6 weeks touring the US. More or less this is going to be the tour. But in a month or so we'll know the official dates!

There's been some little changes in the dates of the Black & Blue promo. Dates, hours, cities.... here they are:

But the schedule for before the Black & Blue promo hasn't changed. On 11th November they'll be in Germany and if you have the ZDF channel you will see them on Wetten Dans?, on 13th November they will be HERE in Spain they will perform at the Amigo Awards, they will be broadcasted on Antena3 live and they will also record a performance for Musica Si. And on 16th November they'll be performing at the MTV Europe Music Awards in Sweden you can see the ceremony live in all the European MTV's. The ceremony starts at 21:00 but I'm sure they will appear before the ceremony too, during the preshow or the countdown to the EMA's.
