There is no doubt about it, I have done more travelling for 'The Time Machine' than any other book I've written. I have been all over the UK and even journeyed to Alicante, Spain! Now that's dedication for you. I have interviewed all of the current members of the band. I have also spoken to all of the past members of the band, including Louis Cennamo. I can tell you he was hard to find. I even managed to find the original guitarist, Jim Roche. He was extremely helpful. There are a few ideas with regard to publishing being discussed, but I can't say anything about that yet. I have, thanks to Jon Hiseman, an array of wonderful pictures and documents to accompany the text. My in-depth interviews with Jon were especially revealing and I came away with many hours on tape. The 2007 Colosseum tour went down well, with most gigs sold out. I spent several days on tour with the band and came away with many great memories. My tour report has now been posted on the site. The new album, Live05, sold very well on the tour and is available in the UK on the Temple Music website. The old material on the album sounds fresh, thanks to a Colosseum re-spray job. And don't forget, there's the Bread & Circuses and Tomorrow's Blues material as well. Dave Greenslade thinks it's the best album they have ever made. Another important aspect of the album is Barbara's debut with the band. The book is now finished and in the proof reading stage. I am very pleased with it and will confirm ASAP regarding a publisher. It is perfect timing that 'The Time Machine' should be available for the next Colosseum tour. To be published in 2008. Return to top of page				Above: Martyn Hanson with Jon Hiseman, Autumn 2006.
