Hi Guys,
Just thought I'd bring those of you interested up to speed with what's going on in GPS land !
Firstly,work has started on the second GPS album which is to be called 'Dreamscape' and is due out sometime next year.
Also,John Payne has a new Asia called, specifically 'Asia featuring John Payne' - there will a live CD released under this name sometime before Christmas ..apparently.The recording was made during Asia's 'Silent Nation' tour in Scandinavia at the end of 2005.
The album that was abandoned at the beginning of last year 'Architect of Time' is also due to be finished and released although there are no details as to when
GPS are due to play two dates in Japan in October (13th and 14th ) - those in attendance will be given a free DVD of the acoustic show that Guthrie and John Payne did in April.
All news can be found on the following websites and mailing lists :

As far as I know the DVD is only available at the shows - no word on a public release at all.

This is the latest news for Asia featuring John Payne :
PRESS RELEASE
John, Jay and Guthrie are pleased to officially announce that the band
lineup has finally been completed with the addition of keyboard wizard par
excellence Erik Norlander. Erik's evocative synthesizer technique and style
is reminiscent of the legendary Rick Wakeman, Keith Emerson and Jon Lord
while still creating a very unique musical voice of his own.
Erik has played on Arjen Lucassen's two-disc "Ayreon: Universal Migrator"
album, a release considered by many to be a visionary redefining of the
progressive rock opera. He also produces, performs and writes with his wife,
Lana Lane, for her highly regarded solo albums.
Vocalist John Payne adds, "We know that the keyboard position is extremely
critical to this band and therefore much time was invested to find the right
person and all roads lead us to Erik."
The band has commenced recording the much-anticipated album 'Architect of
Time' to be released in 2008.
Red Entertainment is currently booking worldwide tour dates.
