Bassist Barry Sparks (DOKKEN/UFO) has issued the following road update:
"I just recently finished another tour in Japan with B'Z... In Your Town showcase tour. We played a lot of the smaller towns and of course they all sold out as usual! We had a great time. Also filmed a video for the new B'Z single 'My Lonely Town' this was filmed on a small deserted island a few miles offshore from Nagasaki. Check out the video below:Once again my hat goes off to Tak and Koshi! These guys are amazing and I am very happy to be a part of this great band. We ended the tour with two headlining gigs at Summer Sonic, Japans largest rock festival. The festival featured everyone from BEYONCÉ to LINKIN PARK and we had a great time and a great gig! I also want to thank the people at Carvin guitars for the great 5 string bass I just got. The new SB5000! It has a great new look and of course great tone. Check it out a www.carvin.com.
Now for the big, big, news! … My wife and I are very happy to announce the birth of our new baby girl! Her name is Serena Marie Sparks, she was born in Italy on November 13th and is the cutest baby in the whole world! Even at one month old she can't stop rockin! Watch out rock n rollers, here she comes!"
