[net.music] What is happening with Asia??

lynch@wivax.UUCP (Robert Lynch) (05/22/84)

Hi everybody!!
I don't know whether I'm just out of touch or what, but does anybody 
know if Asia is still together?? If they are, are there any new albums
planned??  Who is the lead singer?? (dumb question I know, but I've heard
all kinds of rumors from 'they don't have one since Lake left' to 'Lake
and Wetton are both considering coming back')  I didn't even know Lake
left!!  Replies by mail please, I'll post if I get lots of responses from
other people who are wondering the same thing (probably not though).
                              Thanx in advance,

Well, the last amusing rumour that I heard was that Lake was taking
Wetton's place.  I cannot figure out why Wetton left.
 
Lake did the "Asian Invasian" tour.  I'm not quite sure what they are
up to right now, but I tend to doubt that they have broken up.  After
all, money is a good thing and Asia is pretty good at pulling it in.

Well, Iraq is at war with Iran (the song made popular made A Schlock of
Feagulls).  Also, torrential rains in ...

I also heard that Greg Lake has left Euthanasia, and that John Wetton (whom
they kicked out for being too commercial for them---a logical impossibility)
has returned.  Too bad.  If Downes had quit and been replaced by Keith
Emerson, the band could have been called HELP. :-)
