Recording sessions planned for March; tour will likely continue next summer
Written by roxeteer on November 13, 2001 to Exclusive.
HELSINKI - Roxette said in their press conference yesterday immediately prior to the concert here that after finishing their current tour, they are planning to write as much new music as possible. In March of next year, they will go into a studio to record this new material. At the moment, they don’t have any clear plans for new releases. “We’ll see what happens,” said Per to The Daily Roxette.
Per and Marie have both enjoyed the “Room Service” tour. “We’ve had huge crowds… It’s been fantastic,” they said.
For Per and Marie, this tour has been too short. “We will maybe have some more shows in the summer,” said Per. “This tour is over too soon.” When asked about the possibility of a summer concert in Halmstad, their hometown in Southern Sweden, both Per and Marie looked happily surprised with the question. “We’re really hoping to have a concert there,” they said.

We’ll have to talk them into coming back to Oz, there are may fans there who would love to see them again (me included obviously), and at least it wont cost me the price of a new car to see them like it has so far on this tour!

I hope that Latin-America and South-Africa get their concerts, but hey, at least Roxette didn’t cancel their whole tour!!!
And for that: thank you ever so much Roxette for your concert in Helsinki(Helsingfors)!!!! It was perfect... again! Alltough I cannot understand why you didn’t start with us, as you always have done! Anyway thank you!!!!!!!
hajnalpetya said on November 14, 2001 23:14:
YEAH! I agree with Katuska! Come to HUNGARY BUDAPEST but do not forget Latin America and other countries where you were not in last year.
Per, what do you think???

Okay, with our severely ill music scene, I know this has got about as much chance of happening as I have of ever playing quarterback for Miami (though now Dan Marino’s retired, I hold out hope for that), but...
P&M... these extra tour-dates...
what about the UK?

Anonymous...how could you forget about Andorra and San Marino ?!?!? btw, I guess Rox have performed in Vatican, not a full show though...anyway, I might be wrong....would be cool to see Roxette in Poland...Summer Service 2002 ? :)

We can do nothing, they will or they won’t come to my counrty. What am I to do ? Just wait and present my great love to them somewhere else like Prague or Berlin. If you’ve got nothing to live for, just live for Roxette and do find pleasure in it. Poland has always loved Marie and Per but I think they do not appreciate it !
Martynika_PL said on December 3, 2001 03:03:
PER AND MARIE!!!
PLEASE COME TO POLAND,
it’s not fair that there was no tour-concert in our country....
Poland loves you, fans love you!!!!!
I suggest KRAKOW as a city of your destination during continuation of Room Service TOUR :))
Anyway, it doesn’t matter where you will perform, but IN POLAND!
