Yes, I'm very proud of my cousin Charlene Meulenberg who has a really strong voice and wnet out in the last semi-finale of Idols, which many dutch toto fans maybe have noticed, she was into Toto and even sung Stop Loving you in an amazing way there.

Now, the Lions group in Holland organises every year a concert with a strong mixture of music.

I was asked by my musicteacher to collaborate on that Theater event. there is going to be a mixture of classical en popmusic. I play the last 3 songs finale on drums with cousin Charlene and Symphony orchestra. We're going to play

Won't Hold You Back
Stop Loving You
Hot Shot

We are very excited and nice to play a probably tight Toto set there. I hope that the orchestra score contains the genious live ending of Stop Loving You

concert takes place at the 4th of January 2009, theater 'de Spiegel' in my hometown Zwolle.

I wish everyone a good week.

Christopher

I am sorry I won't be in Holland by that time but let me tell you I did see and enjoy your cousin's performance on tv (Stop Loving You). You have got to be talented if your influences are TOTO's ;-)
I hope to get see the performance one day.

Lot's of luck

haha old?!

You're not old, it just depends on if you look too yourself as 'old', if you listen Toto and other mindblowing, solid vocal harmony singing, super-musical bands, you will stay young haha!

I hope to record through line-in or cd and then it's up to me if I think it's Toto/totonetwork worhty enough (high class) to post it, we will see.

I'm a bit nervous because I want it too sound good and I know how it must sound. But if we can all pull that off together, I don't know. As a rhythm section I would say yes! Lead vocs. no doubt about it, it will be mind blowing.

I'm very precise when it comes to covering, I want it to have a certain 'feel' to it, the Toto feel.
