Sean McDowell Show - Phil Collen Interview Quotes
2015 Studio Album
"We wasn't actually gonna do a new album. We was actually just gonna write a few songs. It turned into - we got like 11 songs started so it was like wow that's an album. So we actually came back home. We was only gonna be there a month and we go back there in about two weeks to do a little bit more."
Vivian's Health
"He's just gotta get a check up before we kinda roll out again to see how he's doing."
Second Vegas Residency
"Yeah actually we had a great time. You know we adored it and all the fans who travelled. What was amazing you'd bump into people and they'd travelled from Chile or everywhere in the States. Singapore, all over Europe and everything they'd come just to see these dates so we were blown away. So no we had a blast and we'd love to do it again."
Summer Tour 2014 Expanding?
"As yet we're not but you know what tends to happen like kind of when we done the residency last year. We'd finished the residency and then got an offer to play that show in France. So we actually done it at a festival which was interesting and from that you know it turned into a bit of a tour."
