Thanks for the feedback! Appreciate it very much! I understand your opinion and I do have to agree with everything you're saying. Apart from playing our occasional tour gigs, it definately has bee a while since we last published our music. Although we do have new songs, we just never came around to make a delivery. I am so glad you've kept monitoring us, it shows us how devoted you fans are. We have always tried to pay back with our concerts, bringing the music to you live and we are happy to do so and will keep doing this! On that Idea of 2006 about posting bootlegs well... the site hasn't been running for quite a while except for the necessary concert announcements. I have kept the idea and posted several concerts at youtube from my static cam (some full concerts, some partly) www.youtube.com/theessencemusic Also I am now concerned with the new website and this forum so you might say I am the essence's portal to the fans, straight from the band www.the-es sence.nl We are currently planning on 2015 and if all plans go well it'll have alot in store for you Thanks for believing n us hope to see you on tour next year! George
