Did you see your comments after posting and did they disappear later or were you not able to post them at all?
corr: Stupid question, I saw you have basically answered it already. They disappeared later.

Seems like that happened only on the Nowhere Man post. Did you see that problem also on other posts? We’re still digging for your comments in the database. They must be somewhere.

Hi, could you still post links to these comments ore are they gone by now?
-
Hi, thanks for figuring that out by yourself. Yes, things appear on slightly different places than before. We will write new instructions under the help link on the page when the dust has settled and everything works smoothly.

Done. Good point 🙂

Hi Tim,
We have quite a few independent radio stations that play our music from time to time and have been in more frequent rotation on Austrian stations, BBC Radio Merseyside or the Sirius FM Beatles channel. But it is not something we are actively pursuing as we think that the internet, streaming, YouTube, etc. has proven itself to be much more efficient in introducing our music to new people these days.
Sometimes we would still visit bigger BBC shows and do interviews to promote new music but to be added to their “regular” playlist you pretty much have to be signed to one of the big labels or pay a LOT of money. And to us that has a ton more drawbacks than it is worth 🙂
But always feel free to call your favourite radio show and request them to play our music! ♥

We’re sure Salzburg is greatly benefiting from the tourists that visit because of the movie that is so popular around the world. However, that doesn’t mean that the rest of the country knows much about it 🙂 And those who do, often quite dislike it. If you have a quick google you’ll be able to find loads of articles about this strange phenomenon: http://www.tourmycountry.com/austria/thesoundofmusic.htm
This author obviously has a lot of strong feelings about the movie but it is one of many like that and proves the point 😉
I’m sure that if you live in the city Salzburg, chances are you know about this movie. But we’ve been skiing (and living) in the county of Salzburg every winter for most of our childhood, our grandpa grew up in Salzburg, Austrians love theatre and music and movies and the countryside, yet still … we didn’t hear about this movie until we visited the United States for the very first time. Our parents included. Our friends included (the ones we asked anyway).
I now know that many people around the world view it as one of the world’s most popular films, so while I can understand the criticism Austrians and Germans would have about this movie, I too am a little baffled that this movie isn’t just disliked but also generally unknown to Austrians 🙂 It’s strange and definitely not a g-g-g-generational thing.
Stay groovy!

Ah, sorry. This happened because we prepare a major upgrade on the website. We have to change things under the hood while trying to keep it working. It should be finished in about a week but I reckon with a few glitches here and there next week.
-
Now that’s funny! We haven’t checked their website in a while so we haven’t seen these new videos. It’s interesting how they keep developing and growing with this business and we will keep checking the site to see where we end up playing next. 😉

RIP Gerry 🙁 At the moment we don’t have any plans to cover a Gerry and the Pacemakers song in the near future (too many other plans) but maybe one day. He is sadly missed and we feel lucky that we got to meet him a few years ago. He was very kind and gracious.

Can I offer you some sticky toffee pudding and tea? 😉

Hi Michael!
Yes, I take guitar lessons occasionally. I hadn’t had any real lessons for years but I started again during the first lockdown in 2020 – a few online lessons over Skype. It’s been a great way to keep evolving and learning new techniques and theory. And to just keep picking up the guitar regularly. Especially now that we haven’t played live in a long time, it is really helpful and gives myself other reasons to work on those skills 🙂 -
Hi Antonio! Do you mean if any of us likes to play the boss? 😉 Normally, the workload and responsibilities about everything MLT is pretty evenly split. We both have different aspects of our work that we are in charge of, so depending on who is looking over what project is usually the one being in charge.
But god forbid one of us gets too bossy with the other ????
