In a recent question and answer with fans, Vince Clarke from Erasure has revealed that a recording session for radio 1 featuring songs re-recorded from the band's first album "Wonderland" was accidently 'erased' by an engineer at the BBC. The cock-up took place because the tape was labelled as "erasure"... In the same q+a session Clarke also said that the band will be using a combination of both analog and soft-synths for their next studio album for wich work will start after the release of their previously announce acoustic album. And Clarke adds: "We are thinking of making a more dance orientated record, as electronic sounding as possible." Erasure will most probably be touring the acoustic album in April 2006 with a bunch of musicians from the States including guitar, pedal steel, banjo etc. As for Erasure's 21st Birthday next year, they haven't got any plans at the moment, but a special 'fans only gig' might be an option.Source: www.side-line.com
