Also other territories, but research on sales/position etc is in progress. All of the above European countries visited repeatedly during 3 tours of Europe. Also, the Far East was visited at a time when the band were No. 1 in Thailand, and a video of the live show was recorded in Japan, where the band also had a huge following. The video was released as Modern Romance - "Live in Tokyo".
I am looking forward to renewing old acquaintances with the band when they appear live on stage at The Academy Basingstoke on 2nd June 2007. I hope to see you there! I first saw them perform live on stage at Butlins in Bognor Regis and they had the audience eating out of their hand - we had a fantastic night and I remain an avid fan to this day. During that time, of course, Headline Promotions Press & PR were given the honour of handling the UK and European media relations for the band and it's lead singer - Andy Kyriacou.
