Neal says regarding the tour:

"Also, to avoid any confusion, I am going to have 2 bands, one in Europe and one in America. My reasons are many but the main one is that I want to be able to play this music in as many places as possible, and having bands available on each continent makes it possible to do more concerts. With the festivals being apart from the tour this is really the only way to make it work. Also, I love both these groups and this way I get to play with all of my favorite people!"
