i didn’t realise that there was lots of critical reports on the room service tour? I also didn’t realise that they were considering splitting up? Though I guess this is just media specualtion.
I remember the rumours about splitting up during the C!B!B! era - when some finnish or danish journalist started them...cos Per wouldn’t give him an interview or something?
ho hum.

That article was bullshit all the way. I read it already in 2001 and there were no other reports to back it up.

I have ONE question, ok, I’m lying, I have a few...
Talking about splitting up....
Tevensso, you seem to be one of the main peanuts in the packet.... IS Roxette going to continue or not? We all, by this time, know that you have LOTS of inside scoops and loops, so, can you tell us something that won’t tip the boat over toooooo much??
If Roxette split (touch wood they don’t) will they make it an official press release?? Do you think Per and Marie will sit there on national/international TV and tell us fans the dreaded news?
Please tell us SOMETHING....!!

Oh no, don’t get me wrong.... I’m NOT at all in any way whatsoever angry.
I’m just curious. I’ve never witnessed a band splitting after a long career. Just wondering if Tevensso might know some little, teensy weensy bit of info wether Roxette will make an official statement or not.
I really hope they do go on for years and years to come - I’ve had the times of my life enjoying Roxette’s company. Their music has been my soulmate for 14 years now and I would love to have them around.
Maybe Per mentioned something Roxette-ish to Tevensso.... All I’m asking...
LOL

Per has made it quite clear has he not that he is ready/willing to continue with Roxette when/if Marie wants to. The ball is in her court, so to speak. I hope she will want to do something at some point, but who knows?
....and back to the original article, just another example of shoddy journalism. Why was Room Service considered a “comeback” album, when HAND was released just 2 years previously?

When i was in sweden for the tour they did get bad reviews from some of the swedish papers....thats nothing new for roxette though is it?

@CoyRoy: yesterday on Swedish TV Per said that the doors for Roxette are not shut. And I think, you can read this sentence in the article on the frontpage as well!!!

Not sure this is/was true though. No other media reported it.
