George from the Boston_rocks Yahoo group has posted some questions that were asked to Anthony Cosmo through John (known as Johnboy), who does the lighting and other stuff for the band COSMO. Here is the information gathered from that, word for word.
1) When's the Cosmo website going to be ready? Has there been any issues going live with the new website?
A-"Not sure. Soon we hope." And I'll add, that I (Johnboy) am currently working on the layout/design.
2) Will Anthony and/or Fran be leaving Boston later this year?
A-"No, we are not leaving the band."
3) Will Fran be writing/co-writing any of the songs for the next Boston CD?
A-"No, not yet at least."
4) Will Anthony be starting a new group of his own?
A-"Yes, I have a solo project in the works."
5) Has Anthony written any songs?
A-"I wrote all the Cosmo songs, and of course the few on Corporate America."
6) If a Boston tour does happen this year, will Fran be part of it or does he want to focus more on Cosmo?
A-"Yes, we will be part of it. When Boston is not recording or touring, the focus is on COSMO and anything else interesting that comes along in the biz!"

I'm happy to announce that the video section at thirdstage.ca has expanded!
Thanks to the individual who several years ago supplied me with a few rare videos that still exist here today, I was fortunate enough to get better copies of Boston's Long Time video and the RTZ video Face the Music. I was also able to get a lot more videos in the process. Right now, I've added the music videos for Orion the Hunter's So You Ran and the other RTZ music video Until Your Love Comes Back Around. I will also be adding additional videos in the near future; some live performances of songs and even some interviews, so keep a close eye on this site.
So take a few moments and check out the videos.

Well I had the chance to partake in the chat with Kimberley Dahme through her Official Fan Club. Monday night. I was keeping notes, but I couldn't copy/paste from the chat session directly (stupid Java), so this isn't word for word exactly.
The chat session consisted of about 17 people, including Kimberley. It was a very informal chat session, but I did manage to pick up a little bit of info.
I asked her how many songs she's done for the next Boston album, and so far, she's assisted on two of them.
Someone asked about the rumor of Brad taking over lead vocals, and like what was previously reported from boston.org, who asked Brad Delp directly, and it's not true. In fact, she had this to say:
"Brad is Boston he can never leave again. Well excuse me Brad and Tom have to stay always and of course all of us Fran, Anthony, Jeff, Gary"
As far as her Christmas plans, you can look for her to be visiting a couple Nashville hospitals (she mentioned Vanderbilt and Baptist Hospital), as she said she'd be taking her guitar with her and "knocking on doors", to help bring a smile to kids and adults who can't be home for the holidays.
As for questions of a Boston 30th Anniversary Tour, it might happen. No official word, but her solo performances will be scheduled around it if it does.
