IOANNIS WITH URIAH HEEP IN PA

admin — Mon, 28 Jun 2010 17:21:09 +0000

Ioannis checked in with us this morning after his appearance in Sellersville PA. here is what he had to say. ” Hello again Wednesday night June the 30th I appeared with URIAH HEEP at the Sellersville Theater, Sellersville PA part of their US tour. I got the chance to meet a lot of you, and was humbled at your kind words and enthusiasm, some fans were true Ioannis historians, talking to me about covers over twenty years old! I signed a lot of memorabilia and had a chance to chat with some great fans, and had some great laughs with the band as we traded stories after the show. Sellersville is an amazing place and looking forward to coming back next year! As I had mentioned in my previous post originally plans were for me to do the whole US tour. Unfortunately I needed a foot operation which pretty much put me out of commission for the next few months. Hopefully the opportunity will come up again with possibly doing Europe also which now looks more like a possibility. I am working on two new top secret rock projects, which I will have the chance to discuss at a later date. I also just created a new DEEP PURPLE print in the store section which I think you will like, and working on a King Crimson print box set, more things to come, cheers for now, and thank you so much you guys are the greatest fans in the world. – Ioannis.

DEEP PURPLE ABANDON

admin — Fri, 25 Sep 2009 05:59:41 +0000

My first project and cover for Deep Purple, for the album Abandon and the tour that followed, the first time that it really hit me of the magnitude of this project was when I went to see the band live as their guest and saw the fans walking around wearing tshirts of my art and holding tour programs that featured my work. The high point was when the lights dimmed and the band hit the stage with massive backdrops of my work behind them I felt like a kid all over again. They also did a smoking version of Highway Star, one of my favorite songs and the second video.
