Pete Way: “Hey guys…
This heat really is too hot too handle!
It was really great to catch up with Paul Chapman a couple of weeks ago
Sadly the timing couldn’t have been any worse as i was actually moving on his day of arrival & we didn’t get a chance to play.
So in the meantime i have decided to focus on my solo project & the rehearsals are going great!
Waysted may still happen in the future never say never!
I can’t wait to see you out on the road”

Pete Way Plans New Solo & Waysted Album/Tour 2019 – Joe Elliott

Pete Way is currently working with promoters to book 2019 worldwide tour dates for a joint trek which would feature a solo set from the legendary bassist, and include another set with his band, Waysted.   The former UFO bassists says the shows will tie in with two releases – his long awaited solo album as well as a new album from Waysted, their first in over a decade.

Pete Way:  “I’ve been in regular contact on a daily basis with Paul Chapman and we plan to start working on a new Waysted album imminently. Think “Save Your Prayers” 2.  Waysted will have a very special guest singer of which I haven’t actually asked him yet.  If you can guess who i’m going to ask, you and your lovely wife could win a free photo session with the legendary international rock royalty photographer Ross (rude) Halfin.  Clue… His name begins with the letter “J” & he supports Sheffield United.  He is the master of vocal melodies so “Pour some sugar on me,” “1 lump or 2.”  He’s sometimes known to close friends as “Our Jo” or “Oscar Wilde.”

“I’m tracking the final 4 vocals needed to finish my long awaited solo album in the next couple of weeks. Thanks for your patience guys xxx

“My doctor says that I’m doing good but to please hurry up and finish off the solo album as the medical bills need paying 🙂

“Mike Clink (Gun’s N’ Roses producer) & my long term friend & associate Jason Poole are currently finalising the solo album

“In the meantime if Slash wouldn’t mind giving up his day job with Gun’s N’ Roses i’d love to get him involved.  I know Slash has a kind heart & Duff (McKagan) inspires me to stay on track!

“I will be paying tribute to some of my close friends & rock heroes that have sadly passed at my shows and we can all sing along and raise a toast to them!

“I promise I will be sober & no drugs will be in my system!

“This really matters to me as do you the fans!

“Coming to rock ya 2019

“It’s only Rock N’ Roll but we like it!!!”
