ERIC MARTIN: "I Will Be Doing 80 Dates In The Next Two Years Throughout Europe"

Former MR. BIG singer ERIC MARTIN (SCRAP METAL) has issued the following update:

"Hey everyone, 2007 was a great year and 2008 is already shaping up to be better. I'm working on a blog so stay tuned.

For now, here's an update on some tour dates. I will be doing 80 dates in the next two years throughout Europe, so keep checking the "tour dates" section since it will be updated weekly.

I'm filtering through video footage from last years worldwide tour; South America, Europe, India, Australia and the USA to compile a Live DVD. It's going to take some time since we have over 60 DV tapes, so please be patient.. it's coming.

In between all of this I'm still writing with my songwriting partner, Andre Pessis, daily. I can't wait to start recording this new album.

Scrap Metal will also be doing some more dates in 2008 but until then, you can catch me and Mark Slaughter on March 29th at the legendary Fillmore in San Francisco doing an acoustic set opening for our great pals, Y&T.

Hope to see you there."
