Olivier Group: Super Admins Posts: 1865 Joined: Nov. 1999 Posted: April 01 2006, 10:53 April Fool's Special On MikeOldfield.com Mike says he realized he cannot live without his trusty guitars when he was explaining why he sold them in his autobiography. Mike will contact the buyers to get them back. He also doesn't want to be remembered for "Tubular Bells" and is asking fans for suggestions for a new name, under which the classic album will be re-released. Update: the page has been removed Back to top

Sir Mustapha Group: Musicians Posts: 2802 Joined: April 2003 Posted: April 01 2006, 12:13 LOL, that was a good one. Pretty subtle but funny. And in fact, I can kind of picture Mike putting out a new song called "I Want My Guitars Back", to the tune of the Backyardigans' "I Want My River Back". Wouldn't sound all that bad, I think. -------------- Check out http://ferniecanto.com.br for all my music, including my latest albums: Don't Stay in the City, Making Amends and Builders of Worlds.
