1. JOHN 'SUPERTRAMP' HELLIWELL PLAYS WITH GONZALO'S TRAMPS
--------------------------------
Recently on September 4th at the Victoria Hall in Settle, North Yorkshire, the Logical Tramps - a 'Supertramp tribute band' featuring keyboardist Gonzalo - had the pleasure of original Supertramp saxophonist, John Helliwell, join them on stage for that well-known little ditty, 'The Logical Song'. When asked what he thought of the sax-man 'getting down' with the tramps, Gonzalo said, "...This was an unbelievable honour for us and a great endorsement for the band. We've actually had some very encouraging comments from John and also (ex-Supertrampers) Rodger Hodgson and Carl Verheyen...".
One of Gonzalo's other activities sees him appearing at the Greenwich Jazz Festival in London on 24th September with jazz-rock band, Infusion.

3. SYN ALBUM CHRIS SQUIRE INTERVIEW

On a loosely-related topic, which involved bassist Steve Gee's work earlier this year with Peter Banks and original members of The Syn, the bands company Syn Music are pre-releasing a special YesServices edition of their much acclaimed archive album Original Syn. The special edition will include a bonus CD of a soon to be recorded Chris Squire interview, with questions submitted by fans to the YesServices website. It will also include a new epic style Syn recording of the Yes song, Time and a Word, as a bonus track, plus a full size 20 page colour booklet charting the history of the band.
