It was quiet, very quiet period. But as it shows, it was just silence before the storm! YES! The guys are back in town - or at least it seems they will be, somewhere in Japan this summer, as Billy Sheehan stated in a recent interview. Ok, now, someone has some spare change for a plane ticket to Japan?...

Long time without giving a sign of life, but we're not dead! This time small-but-big update. We're introducing a new section here. The Lost Treasures. A You know, there was some awesome pages in the net once, but they are no longer there. You wish somebody made a copy, archived that - but no sign of that in Google, Yahoo! or other search engines. But... We might ave that! Just look in out Lost Treasures section, and find out!

Guess what?! Don Soledad (the guitar line on Destroy All Monsters Eric's CD) wrote us an e-mail! He writes:

I was just on Eric's webpage and saw your website. I played guitar on Eric s latest CD "Destroy All Monsters" the song titled "You re too good for him". I think that's the name of it. It's funny because, I don't even have a copy of the CD! Eric just sent me the mp3 copy when I finished recording with him at his recording studio in Sausalito, California. I played Flamenco guitar on the track.

He is a funny guy and very talented. He saw me play in San Francisco with my band and invited me to play for his CD. I actually didn't recognize him but after he said he used to sing for Mr. Big - I remembered him instantly. I won't forget about him teaching me the song in the studio since I didn't have enough time to learn it! But I managed and 8 hours later, the song is complete.

Anyhow, I'm glad he has fans like you. He is a very talented singer. Next time I talk to him, I will tell him you are his biggest FAN!

But that's not all! Are You Mr.BIG-hungry? We are! And from now on, we have something, here in Poland - Sweet MR.BIG!.

Want some? Come and get one!

Ok, this is the time for a quite nice update!

W've added some photos, changed some thing, added some discography, with album release dates, and we did... A MR.BIG Greatest Hits Album Review!

Be sure to read that little personal review, because there's something there not directly related to the band... A little surprise to You all!

One what's left, is to wish You a pleasant journey thru our site!

2004-07-22

Well... We've changed our home, our domain, but not our views! We still (or better said always) love Mr.BIG! And we will try harder, to be the Best Unofficial Mr.BIG Site ona can find across the Internet.

There can be some glitches now, right after the move, but we will try to track them down, and simply eliminate. Improve on every single step.... Of course, if You will find something weird, please drop us a note about that - e-mail, or a forum post will do.
