Woodlander Group: Members Posts: 48 Joined: Oct. 2003 Posted: Oct. 25 2004, 15:25 Yes, total silence...like in the old days before the internet where you had to wait and wait to the day that you by chance read an advertisement for a new Oldfield album in the newspaper. Even though he might be in a creative phase or busy with recording - how much effort does it take to write a few lines every week or every 14 days on his website? I am sure all fans would be very happy if he did so. But I guess the Oldfield vs. fan communication subject has been discussed before.... Back to top

Tati The Sentinel Group: Members Posts: 3360 Joined: Feb. 2002 Posted: Oct. 25 2004, 21:16 I´ve discussed about it before here,and I do think that Mike´s tatic regarding his next album is to keep it as a secret project,doesn´t wanna post what is the current status of it like he did for TL and TB 2003 on MO.com. Mike is now in a period of his musical life that he doesn´t need to prove anything for the world anymore.If we like or not his new project,it really doesn´t care at all for him. Let´s wait and see what is next for him. -------------- "But it's always the outsider, the black sheep, that becomes the blockbuster." - Mike Oldfield, 2014 "I remember feeling that I'd been judged unfairly and that I was going to prove them wrong." - Peter Davison, 2011 Back to top

Sir Mustapha Group: Musicians Posts: 2802 Joined: April 2003 Posted: Oct. 26 2004, 07:09 Leave Mike alone, for damn's sake. I guess he is in no hurry to deploy some album for some "purpose" (like there was the purpose for releasing TB2003, 30th anniversary and all), so he just wants to work in peace. So I guess we'll have to wait... or not wait at all. Let's all be surprised when we hear about it, then. And if you need something new, go listen to, I dunno, David Byrne's new album. (good mood) In an off-topic note, I don't suppose Mike himself posts here. But I wouldn't be surprised if he lurked these forums often... He certainly knows about its existance. But how will we know?... -------------- 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.

qjamesfloyd Group: Members Posts: 1357 Joined: April 2001 Posted: Oct. 26 2004, 14:53 I am all for leaving Mike to get on and work,and to be honest would prefer that he does'nt tell us to much about what he is doing,because as normal people go off on one about what THEY think he is doing,and start running Mike down again,which is so boring and not at all helpful,to anyone,but just a short note teaseing us from Mike saying,i'm half finished recording,or i am just mixing the album right now,etc. And if you want anything new to listen to,check out the amazing Mike like instrumental "Cluster One"by Pink Floyd from The Division Bell Back to top
