Oscar, when I say Roxy are dead, I only speak about the future, and of course, you are right when you say that Roxy have done, by far,much more in 20 years than any contemporary band, I agree with that, of course!
Ian S, perhap's Bryan is happier on stage when he is not with Roxy, but don't forget that he is obliged to perform festivals to play in front of a crowd. If not, I am not sure this tour would be a succes, I am sure of the contrary, actually. Hi last album is a commercial disaster.
In fact, Roxy have made much more for Bryan than Bryan for Roxy!

You say Olympia has been a commercial disaster but CD sales have fallen through the floor with the odd exception of the Adele and Lady Gaga phenomenons. Touring is where the money is. Even U2 have seen CD sales fall drastically but their current tour (albeit it took a year to turn a profit) is a huge earner.

I think Olympia is a great album.

I agree too, Olympia is a gret album,maybe his best album in years and it would have been a very good one if released as the Roxy Music mark-

I think all the band have been much more creative and productive since the comparatively dry 1990s.
I still like to hope there'll be a new album. It would be interesting to know how much of Olympia would have otherwise ended up on a Roxy album. Presumably if they resumed work together they would have to start recording from scratch if the best bits of their previous sessions ended up on Olympia.

It's a bit like losing an old love Time to move on for all of us. They won't work together again. They are not enemies but are not the greatest of friends. It should have happened in 2001. It's too late now.

Well, I think Olympia is a gay album, same as Taxi and parts of These Foolish Things. That's why so many men can't understand it or simply don't like it but women love it!! :shock:
