at Rusty's is going to be Zhenya's Rock last
show with the Red Elvises. We respect his artistic
search for something different and more appealing to
him.
Of course
it doesn’t mean the end to the Red Elvises. We
already got a new drummer – Adam and in the process
of selecting a new guitar and probably sax or keyboard
players. Oleg is moving back to his big red bass
balalaika. The band now is going to be 4 or 5
piece. We will experiment and try to work out
a good line up. It is not easy to substitute
Zhenya’s guitar but we are very excited to have
good new people to carry the Red Elvises’ music
and style.
Special
Agent Vladimir G. is busy finishing booking March – April
2003 tour and will post the dates
soon. Igor with Oleg are working on the
