On this week´s Billboard chart, Surprise is at #40, up from #65 last week. That is a considerable increase considering the album has been out for over a month now.

Over here in the UK it went in at no.4 and it is still there! We know good music here in the UK!

It has been promoted here very well. Radio 2 have played Father and Daughter a lot and Paul has made loads of TV and Radio appearances. The press have also written about it very positively.

But he only seems to do intimate concerts. I find that a bit unfair!

He did that one intimate concert which was mainly for broadcast on Radio 2.

When he returns to tour (fingers crossed) he will play larger venues. 3000 seat venues I guess like the Hammersmith Appolo that he played in 2000 or the tent at the Liverpool Pops in 2002 which I think had 4000 seats.

On the strength of Surprise sales in the UK, though - I think he could do a tour of the indoor arenas like he did in 1990. NEC, Wembley Arena, G-Max, etc.
