Verder wel leuk nieuws natuurlijk, hoewel het wel weer de zoveelste 70's reunie is...
quote:Van der Graaf Generator Reunion
After the "classic" line-up got together and played "Still Life" at the end of Peter Hammill's solo gig at the Queen Elizabeth Hall in February 2003, the guys started thinking about playing and recording together again. In September, after a summer of email exchanges, they held a band meeting at west London's Novotel Hotel and planned a get-together for February 2004 at Pyworthy in North Devon.
Peter Hammill's heart attack threatened to scupper these plans but having made a speedy recovery they went ahead. This wasn't an exercise in nostalgia and no old Van der Graaf material was played all week but instead a serious amount of jamming went on and work done on several new numbers.
During the summer of 2004, Hammill, with input from the other three, worked to put together a double CD of new material for release in the first quarter of 2005. Whilst the Royal Festival Hall gig of 6th May is a one-off, there is talk of further gigs as long as the vibe remains favourable.
Described in the press release of November 29th as a "reunion" rather than a reformation, VdGG will perform songs "ancient and modern", and further recording is expected in the autumn of 2005.
Peter Hammill in the press release: "I was getting constant offers regarding a reunion, including one from the South Bank. Until then I had never taken them seriously; but now it seemed as though there might be some interest. We talked and we realised that we met more often at the funerals of former members of our road crew. So if it was to be undertaken, it should be while all four of us were still alive!"
Further information about the new album will be available in the new year.
