Barbara Skydel R.I.P.
Friday, 11 June 2010
Asia is sad to report the death this morning of long time friend and agent Barbara Skydel.

As a partner in Premier Talent, Barbara booked Asia from the start, and prior to Asia she was also responsible for King Crimson, Yes and ELP from their first US tours.

Having merged Premier with William Morris Agency in 2002, Barbara became senior VP and her expertise was instrumental in the successful reunion of Asia in 2006.

The music business has changed in many ways since Barbara started her voyage in the 1960s, but Barbara always maintained her good humour, wisdom and integrity, and her passing is a loss, not only for the multitudes who knew her and knew of her, but also for the music industry as a whole.

ASIA's critically acclaimed single "An Extraordinary Life" Chosen
To Promote Hit NBC show "America's Got Talent"

“OMEGA” OUT NOW ON FRONTIERS RECORDS

HOLLYWOOD, CA (May 26, 2010) - ASIA's critically acclaimed rock track "An Extraordinary Life," was chosen as the soundtrack for promotional spots announcing the 2010 season of AMERICA'S GOT TALENT. This show is among the most popular entertainment reality shows of all time. Last season the show peaked at the #1 position in overall viewership.

AMERICA’S GOT TALENT producers specifically sought out the rights to use the famed ASIA song, which was written by members John Wetton and Geoff Downes. The track was recorded shortly after Wetton survived open heart surgery, in 2007. The song celebrates "carpe diem":  each person's ability to seize each day, living life to the fullest. The promotional spots for America’s Got Talent featuring “An Extraordinary Life,” begin airing on NBC in prime time, Wednesday, May 26th.

Asia YouTube Channel
Tuesday, 18 May 2010

Asia is considering creating its own YouTube pages. We invite any audience members to submit YouTube selections of Asia which will be uploaded to our new pages subject to approval.

The band ask all of you to be reasonable, please, and take into account the comfort and enjoyment of your fellow audience members when taking your films.  The band does not want to see whole concerts filmed, nor TV or bulky cameras spoiling the view of your neighbours.  We extend this invitation to those of you who record to your phone or iPod the occasional short segment of your favourite track.

If the band believes that concert goers are being disturbed by over enthusiastic YouTubers, the YouTube pages will be withdrawn and we will return to our previous position.

Video may be submitted via email and should be less than two minutes in length.
