Keyboarder Jon Lord (ex-DEEP PURPLE), der gerade eine Therapie zur Bekämpfung einer Krebserkrankung überstanden hat, hat sich zum Jahreswechsel mit einer kurzen Pressemitteilung an seine Fans gewandt:
"Happy New Year to all of you and thank you so much for your wonderful, kind and inspirational messages over these last few difficult months. I have been mightily sustained by reading them and will continue to be so. You are a very special lot indeed. I am doing well and I will be back with more news and updates in the next week or so. In the meantime, party hearty but look after yourselves.
I wish you success and happiness, and above all I wish you health.
God bless
Jon"
