I can easily say that life has been a much better journey with Marillion's music to accompany me along the way this far. Thanks, and please don't stop !
The brief clip of Care from Leicester is just so emotionally beautiful. No other band can conjure such magical music. Well done Marillion- best band ever !!!
Saw you guys at Sheffield last year with the AHBID tour and I have never seen so many grown men crying when you played Care...it really touched some thing inside
My first ever show was the Brave set in Pontins 2002 at the first ever Marillion Convention, later to be named "Weekends". I was totally in tears by the end of The Great Escape. That whole album played live took all of us on an emotional journey. They totally nailed it! Not many bands ever have that effect on me on studio albums, but especially live.
Lucy's face at 32:32 conveys so much. Years of dealing with rockstars, frustration, stubborn people, taciturn guitarists, clumsy singers, band politics, general shenanigans, all adding up to a big fat "see, this is what I deal with every day!" We appreciate your work Lucy... It can't be easy!
So much fun watching Marillion Monthly! Hope you will be careful with spoilers in the next episode though when it comes to highlights of the first Marillion-weekend ;-) I will be going to both Haarlem and Padua, and love to be surprised! Enjoy your first Marillion-weekend in 2023!
Maureen Thackway. Hello I've just started listening to Marriilion and I am 69 . Just love all the music and cheers me up because I suffer with depression and makes me feel so much better. Love listening to monthly interviews.
I’m really enjoying these monthly videos and updates from the band! Thank you for doing them! I’ve got a question: any idea when the remaster of Holidays in Eden will be available on Apple Music in the US? I’ve got the deluxe CD but AM is my main way of listening to music and I need to be able to listen to this awesome remaster more!
Thanks for another fab interview Lucy. Loved the clip of "This Strange Engine", really hoping it will be in the weekends as I am going to my first in Leicester, it reminds me of my Dad who was an engineer in the Navy. 🙂 Ps, Steve has fab tv choices too!
I've had memorable experiences at four Marillion weekends I've attended in Montreal but this year will pass (sadly). I will have hip surgery and it would be impossible for me to endure three nights standing since I missed the Balcony sale. But also this year have other plans to explore new places, so if you are planning to go to one of the conventions, do go, it is worth it! 🙂
February's episode was just as amazing and entertaining as the first one. I loved seeing Care live from Leicester as it reminded me of my 60th Birthday and one of my favourite Marillion gigs ever after over 40 years. I'm really looking forward to the Rothery and Hackett collaboration and to hear the band will soon be heading into the studio to start working on new material was the icing on the cake. Keep up the great work, I can't wait for the next edition in March.
This is just one of the reasons I love Marillion. You know the band has its feet on the ground when the guitarist's favourite moment is not something like a crowning achievement on their long career, but an assumed mistake turned into something shared, a rough diamond that the band played their hearts into and ended with a great performance!! Marillion are HUGE!!!
MS has left this long-time(37yrs) Marillion fan homeless, the past 8 mos, and if not for these five, special characters; and the beauty/brilliance of their music that has kept my mind occupied all these months, years for that matter, I'm sure I would be hopelessly lost. My sincere gratitude!!! What an amazing community!
Marillion Monthly is another great innovation of the band to connect with the fans, after crowdfunding and the Weekends. I read the other fans comments, and it is amazing to see that some of us have a similar relationship with the band. I was 17 when I was introduced to the band in 1987. I am now 53 and still listen to many albums religiously. Brave for instance, which came out 2 weeks before my father died at age 45. Everytime I listen to it, I am flooded with emotions that reminds me of this tragic episode in my life. The Great Escape is a song that makes me cry everytime I hear it. So does the solo on Easter. Thanks for being in my life for the last 35 years! (Steve, from Quebec, Canada)
Love the music, love the lyrics and now I love the Marillion Monthly interviews immensely. What a fabulous bunch of people you all are. Thank you so much for sharing and keeping in touch with us!
I'd love to have a hardbound edition of lyrics from all the albums H has done - from Season's End to An Hour. You should publish one with artwork and photos of the band performing.
It's so funny. Thanks so much. It is such a pleasure to follow these monthly sessions. I count on You to do this hopefully for the next years. You all are the BEST. Looking forward to seeing you soon.
Marillion have been a non-negotiable in my life for over 30 years ❤️ Can’t live without them and the friends I’ve made because of them, are friendships for life -thank you so much guys ❤️
I’ve ‘found’ Marillion again after many years , and feel like I’ve arrived in a community of genuinely nice people who happen to be brilliant at what they do. Absolutely love the last album and would be more than thrilled to win tickets for a weekend 🤞
Great show, can't wait to the next one! Since 1984 Marillion is part of my life and i will never, never miss them!!! Go on and don't stop making proud beeing a Marillion-Fan!!!
Another great monthly……….absolutely loving these Lucy. From Market Square Heroes, when I was 14, to the present day, I have been listening to your music in awe. Long may it continue. Happy 40th Anniversary to Script 🎉🎉
I winced the whole episode. The Roland JC120 was pointed right at Lucy's head. YIKES! By the way, h (the singer guy) has a poll on his patreon/podcast (The Corona Diaries) asking if prawn crackers are suitable for breakfast (or not). What does Rothers think?
1983 was the start and 40 years on and still loving the music.. Loving the marillion monthly show and that clip of Care from Leicester, just wow! why o why can that Saturday Leicester show not be released on DVD, the best show I have seen the band perform in years!! So looking forward to Leicester again.......keep up the good work !!
Thank you for this video. Excellent as always. For future monthly videos, I'd love to know more about what each member of the band loves, be it movies, books or other music. For instance, I'd love to know what music they particularly enjoy listening to these days. I'm thinking of currently-active bands/ artists. Thank you so much, Marillion, for making some of the most beautiful music I know. Been a fan for 36 years! Love from Paris, France.
Excellent video - have been watching/listening to Marillion since 1983 (Ian's first gig in Aberystwyth I think?) and it's great to hear all this insights into the band. How about a 3 minute clip from a band member each month with a quick lesson on a particular Marillion riff/solo/chord change/ drum fill whatever ?
Steve, please hit up Dan & Mick and make a TPS show! Your rig is fascinating. Your tone and your choices are amazing - both effect wise and musically. Love it. OMG, the fan stories are amazing fun. Thanks for doing all of this!
Last time I chatted to Steve was at the back of the old Marquee in Wardour Street , he was with Jo and they were mixing Misplaced at the time....I haven;t been in the country for a lot of the time since then but was last at the video shoot for Hooks In You as I lived in Brixton at the time (Moles Club was brilliant gig too...gotten to chat to H a lot then, such a nice chap). My question is what happened to Angie? She got me into so many of the small venue gigs in the early 1980's? This time really looking forward to Leicester, I am disabled now (can;t raise it like I did at the Incommunicado video shoot!!!) and will be watching from the balcony. Love the broadcasts you are doing...thank you as I feel I can finally reconnect with the band I have loved since 1983 (second night Hammy Odeon).
I'm really looking forward to the Leicester weekend, and Revontulet, and the next Deluxe box set......and to hear you going to start work on another studio album soon (relatively speaking) is fab news. These monthly videos are superb, and very amusing. Keep up the great work.
Please don’t enter me in the competition, we unfortunately can’t make any of the Weekends this year. I am in mourning. Thank you for another great episode! I’ve got a wonderful memory from Montreal 2019 that I’ll be sharing, definitely. Have a great Port Zelande weekend. Wish I could be there. ❤
Thank you for another great episode...I was lucky enough to meet Mr Rothery at a Guitar show at the NEC back in 2007. I shall never forget that I got to hold his Blade Strat🎸 !! Keep up the good work 👍
Love this TH-cam channel. Great to get insights to the band. Been a fan right from the beginning of Script for a Jester’s Tear. Really loving An Hour Before it’s Dark. Two tickets would be great for the Leicester Weekend. Keep up the great work lads.
Shout out to Vijay! Always a pleasure to hear from a fellow Toronto-based Marillion fan. I've been following the band for 35+ years (yep, I'm old) and I have always felt that our fair city doesn't get quite enough love from the boys. I mean Montreal is one of my favourite cities in the world and there is clearly a strong fan base there. I totally understand why the band would have a soft spot for MTL. I mean they even wrote a (great) song about the city. That said, there is a huge and loyal fan base here in TO (including such fine people as you I) and we're a mere 5 hour drive away! Thoughts?
Thoroughly enjoyed watching my favorite guitar player enjoying himself, and spilling the beans on working with Hackett. The monthlies are excellent. You know what would be awesome, is if on the website you can add an American store with dollars, so I can easily buy merchandise and rent videos. What I'd like to see if Steve demoing his pedal board, and also hear the story about his main Squire guitar. He's been playing it since the 80's,
At the legendary “Garden Party” Milton Keynes, When Marillion came on stage and opened up with garden party, I was outside the arena buying a burger, trust me, I got my ass back into crowd quick enough.
Congratulation for your one year old baby "An hour before it's dark! I love this new album very much! BUT, what I do not quite understand - why does h sing these words: I seen the future! It aint orange, it's green I been listening to Greta T Begins with a letter C I'm going to be a friend of the earth ...and at the same time you hold on to this "cruise to the edge" concert traveling trip, when everyone knows that this way of traveling is anything but sustainable! Could someone from the band please explain to me, why you are doing this cruise again in 2024?
Another great episode, thank you. I can't be in Port Zelande but I do have my tickets for Leicester and for Steve's two nights at the Band On The Wall in Manchester - I can't wait. Also, as a little plug for Mr Rothery - If you haven't attended a gig at Band On The Wall, then please try. It's an amazing and intimate venue where the sound is fantastic.
Brighton ‘22, or as I call it, the night of technology kick back...was just epic. I don’t know how you guys do it, but bringing fully grown humans to tears is a special art form. See you at Leicester
I was interested if you had ever met Fleesh (you mentioned shows in Poland) as the two of them recorded an excellent album of covers? I am sure you must have, as I am sure that they approached you for permission! I am disabled, so I find it problematic to get to concerts, but I wish you all the best for the forthcoming conventions. I met you at Brean in 2001, and had a wonderful time. Take care.
My first Marillion gig was 20th March 1983 at Portsmouth, and the last day of the PZ weekend will be the 40th anniversary of that. By then I will have found out what the mystery songs were that you were both talking about in the interview. Can't wait
Fantastic informative and great fun as usual, and proof that none of this is rehearsed. A weekend with Lucy? I'm not sure if I'd come out of it alive after she found out that I'm really John Vernham Saunders 😄 Looking very much forward to the next monthly update.
My best marillion memory is seeing Steve H coming out of a toy shop in Hanley with a laughing box in hand. It was on the Seasons End tour 1989. Later, H used the box in the introduction to a song, and I can't recall whichever song ? Later, I got to meet the whole band when they came out the stage door to mingle, chat, and sign stuff. Lovely memories.
A good mixture of facts & fun, really enjoyable 40 minutes, keep them coming. I'm pretty sure this is going to be even longer as there's a good chance to cover the upcoming weekends at length.
Steve Rothery is such a nice person!! I have had the pleasure to speak to him several times! His wife Jo is also very kind! I have met her several times (as well). Really looking forward to PZ!!! 🤩
Only have had the chance to see Marillion live twice. The first was the Clutching at Straws tour in NYC. The second was FEAR, again in New York. Both were great shows. The latter, I got to meet Pete.
I'm in Australia and can't wait to see you guys coming here. I just discover your band last year (sorry for that 😉), but I love your sound and letters. Hopefully I can see you live one day!!
I thoroughly enjoyed this months edition, especially Steve R's sense of humour. It would be interesting to find out how the band members and crew protect their hearing and whether they have hearing problems after so many years of playing. Thanks.
Hackett at Racket! Two of my favourite guitarists together, that can't be bad 😄 Spoiler alerts a little pointless *after* the spoiler, eh 😝 Gotta say that Lucy is a great presenter! I like these videos.
I would love to win a pair of MW Tickets! The first time I met Steve Rothery was at the Steven Wilson Royal Albert Hall shows. He was kind enough to allow a photo taken of us together. My favorite guitarist and I.
Another cracking episode, great to see Care from Leicester I'm sure I saw my phone at one point... fabulous memories of a great weekend. Loving the format.
Great tv from the best band in the world with the best fans in the world! We visit a lot of concerts, but Marillion concerts are the very best. Lovely people around you who are talking and become friends. Can't wait for the next Marillion concerts!
Time is the Ultimate Master but I can spend hours to listen to your Music for the last Zillion Years since you are the Engine of my strange Life. Thank you for being persistent ......
Great episode! Do you still have any plans for guitar clinics or master classes, Steve? Would love to see you in That Pedal Show or a rig rundown... all the best for your solo shows and Postcards from the road vol. 2
So good to get to listen to the band on a personal level, now that these monthly shows have started. I've been following the band since 1982 and have even managed to take my daughter, who was very impressed, to see a show in Dallas on the FEAR tour when we lived in Texas.
Great episode. I have a question. What do the band think about the fan sites and podcasts that seem to have sprung up recently? For example, do they listen to the excellent Between You And Me Podcast?
![ผัวเถื่อน - ยูริ โตเกียวมิวสิค [ OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO ]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/P08ORRVDGl8/mqdefault.jpg)
The words that comes to mind regarding Marillion are spiritual and healing, a special place in my heart. Much love from Brasil! ❤
I can easily say that life has been a much better journey with Marillion's music to accompany me along the way this far. Thanks, and please don't stop !
The brief clip of Care from Leicester is just so emotionally beautiful.
No other band can conjure such magical music.
Well done Marillion- best band ever !!!
Thank you
Always felt Steve R’s sense of humour was underrated 😂😂
The album with Hackett is going to great! I just can not imagine it being any other way. Two of my favourites coming together.😍
Hopefully Hackett will also sing some things 😀
Saw you guys at Sheffield last year with the AHBID tour and I have never seen so many grown men crying when you played Care...it really touched some thing inside

I love to hear the album "Seasons End" when I am on a long flight! It is so calming and relaxing.
So much fun watching Marillion Monthly! Hope you will be careful with spoilers in the next episode though when it comes to highlights of the first Marillion-weekend ;-) I will be going to both Haarlem and Padua, and love to be surprised! Enjoy your first Marillion-weekend in 2023!

Loving this. Can't wait to see Pete's gear too. What a bass player! \m/

o.0
Well, that was unexpected. Thank you, both! :D
I really like all this “back of house” content on the channel - it shows why you are all still making all this music.
Very excited for the Rothery/Hackett album. 2 people who inspired me as a teenager to pick up the guitar.
Marillion Monthly is another great innovation of the band to connect with the fans, after crowdfunding and the Weekends.

Ian, you have a GREAT sense of humour and I love it!
Pull your finger out with the new album Steve! 🤣
Love the music, love the lyrics and now I love the Marillion Monthly interviews immensely. What a fabulous bunch of people you all are. Thank you so much for sharing and keeping in touch with us!
Enjoyed the show guys top drawer. ❤️
Entertaining interview! Loved the live clips ❤

Greetings from Florida. Great show. See you in PZ!
I’ve ‘found’ Marillion again after many years , and feel like I’ve arrived in a community of genuinely nice people who happen to be brilliant at what they do.
Absolutely love the last album and would be more than thrilled to win tickets for a weekend 🤞
No other band can make laugh and cry like Marillion. I've been a fan for going on 40 years now. Thank you for great memories!
Marillon with the exception that the other bands don't have. Just listen 🍀👌👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Great show, can't wait to the next one!
Since 1984 Marillion is part of my life and i will never, never miss them!!!
Go on and don't stop making proud beeing a Marillion-Fan!!!
Another great monthly……….absolutely loving these Lucy. From Market Square Heroes, when I was 14, to the present day, I have been listening to your music in awe. Long may it continue. Happy 40th Anniversary to Script 🎉🎉
What a marvelous show, again!!! I'm thinking about doing a fan memory clip.. i have a very good idea for that.. (or, so I think anyway)...
cheers!!!
I winced the whole episode. The Roland JC120 was pointed right at Lucy's head. YIKES! By the way, h (the singer guy) has a poll on his patreon/podcast (The Corona Diaries) asking if prawn crackers are suitable for breakfast (or not). What does Rothers think?
As Alan Partridge would say "great bants" ...I'm looking forward to March edition (and it's already the 27th..Nudge Nudge).
1983 was the start and 40 years on and still loving the music.. Loving the marillion monthly show and that clip of Care from Leicester, just wow! why o why can that Saturday Leicester show not be released on DVD, the best show I have seen the band perform in years!! So looking forward to Leicester again.......keep up the good work !!
Never a dull moment when any of the Marillion members and Lucy get together ..you can see and hear the love ❤️ and it keeps me in stitches🤣...always😉
thank you

This was so much fun! Thank you so much! And album coming with Steve Hackett? Hello!!!! 👍🙏❤️🏆
I have been a fan since I was 14. Now 54 . Your
Music has touched so many of us thank you!
Steve, please hit up Dan & Mick and make a TPS show! Your rig is fascinating. Your tone and your choices are amazing - both effect wise and musically. Love it. OMG, the fan stories are amazing fun. Thanks for doing all of this!

Loving the MaMo broadcasts.
Been a fan since Script album and Fugazi at Hammersmith in '84.
Keep them coming and looking forward to Leicester again :)
I'm really looking forward to the Leicester weekend, and Revontulet, and the next Deluxe box set......and to hear you going to start work on another studio album soon (relatively speaking) is fab news. These monthly videos are superb, and very amusing. Keep up the great work.
Please don’t enter me in the competition, we unfortunately can’t make any of the Weekends this year. I am in mourning.
Thank you for another great episode! I’ve got a wonderful memory from Montreal 2019 that I’ll be sharing, definitely. Have a great Port Zelande weekend. Wish I could be there. ❤
Thank you for another great episode...I was lucky enough to meet Mr Rothery at a Guitar show at the NEC back in 2007. I shall never forget that I got to hold his Blade Strat🎸 !! Keep up the good work 👍

At the legendary “Garden Party” Milton Keynes, When Marillion came on stage and opened up with garden party, I was outside the arena buying a burger, trust me, I got my ass back into crowd quick enough.
Thanks, Lucy- for another great monthly episode and insight into the workings of Steve Rothery’s output. Looking forward to next month’s already! ❤
Oh my god, please remember South America, Brazil fans are waiting for another visit, it’s been a while now!❤❤ you guys!!
Rothers and h should definitely do their own Jackanory style bedtime story.
Congratulation for your one year old baby "An hour before it's dark!
I love this new album very much!
BUT, what I do not quite understand - why does h sing these words:
I seen the future! It aint orange, it's green
I been listening to Greta T
Begins with a letter C
I'm going to be a friend of the earth
...and at the same time you hold on to this "cruise to the edge" concert traveling trip, when everyone knows that this way of traveling is anything but sustainable!
Could someone from the band please explain to me, why you are doing this cruise again in 2024?

Great episode 👍
What about up and coming reissues and remasters.... particularly on vinyl??
Just got Holidays In Eden and it is tremendous 👌
Steve Hackett?!? Working with Steve Rothery! Clearly all the best guitarists are named Steve...
Enjoy all this update. Looking forward for March update!
Thanks
Would the band like copies of early versions of gigs? Dunstable hall ?1981?
Looking forward to both Leicester and Band On the Wall - - not to mention the Steve x2 collaboration. 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎶⭐️🎶😊
I was interested if you had ever met Fleesh (you mentioned shows in Poland) as the two of them recorded an excellent album of covers? I am sure you must have, as I am sure that they approached you for permission! I am disabled, so I find it problematic to get to concerts, but I wish you all the best for the forthcoming conventions. I met you at Brean in 2001, and had a wonderful time. Take care.
My first Marillion gig was 20th March 1983 at Portsmouth, and the last day of the PZ weekend will be the 40th anniversary of that. By then I will have found out what the mystery songs were that you were both talking about in the interview. Can't wait
Fantastic informative and great fun as usual, and proof that none of this is rehearsed. A weekend with Lucy? I'm not sure if I'd come out of it alive after she found out that I'm really John Vernham Saunders 😄 Looking very much forward to the next monthly update.
Fell in love with Marillion when watching TV at the age of 8 in 1985 when Kayleigh was played. The magic of Rothers' solo did the trick for me.
My best marillion memory is seeing Steve H coming out of a toy shop in Hanley with a laughing box in hand. It was on the Seasons End tour 1989.
Later, H used the box in the introduction to a song, and I can't recall whichever song ?
Later, I got to meet the whole band when they came out the stage door to mingle, chat, and sign stuff. Lovely memories.
A good mixture of facts & fun, really enjoyable 40 minutes, keep them coming. I'm pretty sure this is going to be even longer as there's a good chance to cover the upcoming weekends at length.
2 down 10 to go for this year.....glorious footage of H messing up his lines and crowd surfing.....and surely Lucy is the star of these monthly vids⭐
Steve Rothery is such a nice person!! I have had the pleasure to speak to him several times! His wife Jo is also very kind! I have met her several times (as well).
Really looking forward to PZ!!! 🤩
Only have had the chance to see Marillion live twice. The first was the Clutching at Straws tour in NYC. The second was FEAR, again in New York. Both were great shows. The latter, I got to meet Pete.
Thanks for all the great music thru the ups and downs of life! With Marillion’s music the up’s are ever lasting and down’s seem to fade away quickly!
I'm in Australia and can't wait to see you guys coming here. I just discover your band last year (sorry for that 😉), but I love your sound and letters. Hopefully I can see you live one day!!
I need Marillion daily :)
I thoroughly enjoyed this months edition, especially Steve R's sense of humour. It would be interesting to find out how the band members and crew protect their hearing and whether they have hearing problems after so many years of playing. Thanks.
Hackett at Racket! Two of my favourite guitarists together, that can't be bad 😄
Spoiler alerts a little pointless *after* the spoiler, eh 😝
Gotta say that Lucy is a great presenter! I like these videos.
I would love to win a pair of MW Tickets! The first time I met Steve Rothery was at the Steven Wilson Royal Albert Hall shows. He was kind enough to allow a photo taken of us together. My favorite guitarist and I.
Hi Steve and Lucy. An album with Thorsten and Steve Rothery…..awesome. Can wait to hear that.
Please plan Marillion concerts in the USA, especially Los Angeles, I love your music!!!!
Another cracking episode, great to see Care from Leicester I'm sure I saw my phone at one point... fabulous memories of a great weekend. Loving the format.
I am very curious on the double steve project (Hacket and Rothery) coming up! and of course our PZ weekend! see you all there!
Thank you, Lucy and Steve. Great fun and some lovely video clips. Thanks too for reading out my comment!
Fabulous format, thank you. I‘m pretty devastated I can‘t make it to PZ for the first time. Have a great time, y‘all!
Great tv from the best band in the world with the best fans in the world! We visit a lot of concerts, but Marillion concerts are the very best. Lovely people around you who are talking and become friends. Can't wait for the next Marillion concerts!
Time is the Ultimate Master but I can spend hours to listen to your Music for the last Zillion Years since you are the Engine of my strange Life.
Thank you for being persistent ......
Great episode! Do you still have any plans for guitar clinics or master classes, Steve? Would love to see you in That Pedal Show or a rig rundown... all the best for your solo shows and Postcards from the road vol. 2
❤Estou profundamente apaixonada❤🎉🎉🎉. Sou do Brasil/ Rio Grande do Sul❤
Another fun monthly. Like the Holidays in Eden back drop, thinking of getting that incorporated in my Marillion Tattoo
Rothers is always good value, the album with Steve Hackett sounds very exciting.
So good to get to listen to the band on a personal level, now that these monthly shows have started. I've been following the band since 1982 and have even managed to take my daughter, who was very impressed, to see a show in Dallas on the FEAR tour when we lived in Texas.
Great episode. I have a question. What do the band think about the fan sites and podcasts that seem to have sprung up recently? For example, do they listen to the excellent Between You And Me Podcast?
Going to lesta and PZ, first time in pz since 2011. Montreal does sound good too, so if I win a pair of tickets we'll head across the Atlantic!
Tried so much to enjoy Steve Hogarth´s voice but I just can´t. Jim Kerr has what Hogarth doesn´t.
