(Thanks to Lothar Pedd for kindly forwarding the email to me)
" I'm sure I've seen the original black and white version in better and sharper quality (?) "
Editor: In my humble opinion, the subsequent processing may have led to a small loss of quality.

NEWS FROM THE SURF BALLROOM
More about the Hologram Tour
Do you remember ??
The last message on the 'old' website in BUDDY HOLLY NEWS 6 was about the Hologram Tour,
which is currently going through England, Wales, the Netherlands, Germany and Belgium.
Personally I was and am not happy with the pictorial presentation of my idol Buddy Holly. Every Buddy Holly fan can see
that this is not Buddy Holly, neither in appearance nor in movement. Why this project was approached so blue-eyed remains
a mystery to me.
On 10-28-2019 the tour will stop in Essen / Germany, at the Colosseum Theater.
Exactly there, where I had a joint performance on German TV with Maria Elena Holly in 2009.
