Update projects

GSI NEWS UPDATE
Source: GSI WEBSITE/ FACEBOOK GROUP
“I finally have time to update you again and give answers on lots of questions which arrived at GSI recently and even today.
-To begin with, many of you noticed the articles about Steve Gibb in the newspapers. I always wait with posting until I have more info, until I have checked whether it’s okay to post at all. This quite often happens with situations even a few times this weekend!!  I just do not want to hurt anyone and I see GSI in the first place as a place to honour the Gibb music and the people behind the music. That being said:
I understand lots of you were quite shocked to read the news articles about Steve having had problems with drugs and alcohol.

I knew about that period in his past but I understand why a number of fans suddenly mailed me asking etc.
The story is a bit out of its context I heard and on top of that I understand that the last thing Steve thought was that the UK press would pick up on his podcast, but as it is out there now it’s okay. It’s been a rough time for him and now he’s even trying to help others who are in trouble. Great guy!!

If you’d like to follow his talks just visit these links which I already posted before on GSI.

Concerning some other subjects you often ask me about:
Due to the whole corona problem world wide most activities, also those concerning The Gibbs, are ON HOLD.

Though I have good hope that the Bee Gees documentary will air in December of this year!! and Barry’s new album will be released in January 2021!!

The film won’t be ready before 2022/2023 and Barry has not long ago started working on a book about his life which we talked about already here on GSI quite some time ago. At that time an album did have priority for Barry. That album is finished now and waiting for a good time to get released. Barry will take his time to write down his live story and I expect the book to be ready in 3 to 4 years from now.

Also due to corona like previous mentioned there is delay of starting the special Legacy Shows:  the celebration of The Gibb Music, which woud start this year. Robin John Gibb, family, business partner, friends and special guests are working on it for quite some time already and now use the corona time to do lots of on line / charity projects and the live concerts won’t be  starting before somewhere next year with shows in Europe and outside Europe!!

Hello I really enjoy your fan fever, it’s fantastic! I was wondering if the documentary will be on screen in the movies or on TV. The film will be released in film as well? Finally, the concerts will only have Robin John? Sorry if I got it all wrong. I really appreciate all your updates keeping all of us informed. I have been a BeeGees fan since I was 11 and Andy too! I am truly excited about all the new things happening in the future! Thank you for all you do!! Sincerely Lia
