About Me |
|
| "...New Order have a certain hardcore of fans called The Vikings, who follow them round the world. I don't know how they knew, but they'd made it their business to find out exactly what I was doing. They were asking for me after the shows and saying 'I can't believe what you have done, it sounds fantastic!' It's great that the fans appreciate the amount of effort that has gone into it to get it right."Roger Lyons of Lionrock, interviewed by Sound on Sound, April 2004.http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/apr04/articles/rogerlyo ns.htm | |
