[kj] It starts...Album & tour Postponed to September

[Per G Olsson]

	Hmmmm,

	What if...

	KJ has decided to mix the new album in the same "sounds as it was  
recorded in a biscuit tin filled with cotton balls" style as Hosannas...
	The Spinefarm folks gets a listen and says:

		"Go back, do a PROPER mix, it's such a great album and we don't  
want it wasted"

	I would gladly have wated six months longer for Hosannans if it had  
been mixed in a more "conventional way".


	Having said that, I haven't forked out on tickets and travel....
