Billy was on WBAB again this morning... and WOW ... big news...
Elton and Billy have written a song together a couple of weeks ago. Bernie did the lyrics and Elton and Billy wrote the music. It still has to be recorded, but will be...
Billy will spend the winter months touring 30 colleges, doing his Masters Class Seminars.
He will be announcing the formation of a "SUPER GROUP" tour shortly (once all of the legal matters have been worked out). Kind of like a 90's Travelin Willburys. Including him, Henley and Sting!!! I don't know about you guys, but I'm ready to get on line now for tickets!!! He said the last tour took a lot out of him, and since he is not a group, he can't break up with himself (unless he gets multiple personalities!). So this Super Group idea is his solution to being bored.
He IS writing... but what he is writing is coming out of him Classical!!! He is not sure what it is leading to, but he said, if it is coming out of him that way, he has to go with it. He isn't sure what it will evolve into yet...
No Christmas album from Billy, he considers himself a writer, not a singer and therefore, does not feel like putting out an album of him singing Christmas songs.
Well... I think that is all of it... he will be on again tomorrow and I'll fill you in on any new news then...
