Billy: “… And, sure enough, Japan was the first to come and offer us some shows… And now they’re entertaining shows everywhere else. All the wheels are in motion to play all over the place.
Q: So, you might not be able to reveal this yet… but there’s a good possibility that we may be seeing Mr. Big here in the States?
Billy: Absolutely.
Q: Awesome.
Billy: We just don’t have any solid dates yet. We might be a little too late to do any big summer tours this year, but I don’t know. It’s not been completely rolled out, because most of the summer tours are booked, you know, in the preceding fall. So we’ll see what happens with that. We’re doing Japan, and I know they’re talking about Korea, Asia, Europe, the UK, Italy, possible India… that’s going to be a riot.
Q: Pretty cool.
Billy: (laughs) Because my inbox looks like the United Nations. Getting e-mails from Sri Lanka, and Iraq. It’s unbelievable. We were very lucky to have a lot of success around the world, so, a lot of people have expressed great joy that we’re together again. We couldn’t be more thankful about that. We’ll try to play everywhere on Planet Earth, so that’s our plan.”
