Yes Guy said they recorded the demo's with the band and that Mark wrote 26 songs for the musical.

These(demos) will never see the light of day.

My hope has been always that they just use the actors voices and the music from the demos, but I fear they would use not only the actors but also the musical band...

If they release a deluxe version with the demos...

I know we can hardly complain about the level of MK related activity in the last few months - but does anyone sense any desire at all to revive this musical? I’d still hope for a London run.

Guy said in that recent interview that a third run is being planned but nothing else.

Bad news regarding the musical by Guy:

sadly, I wouldn’t hold your breath. There is still a remote chance but I don’t see it as likely.

I hope that at least there is any chance of having the songs released in the future.

Very sad news, this would maybe have been one of the last public MK related events for us to go to.

I wonder what happened?
I know the way I can see by the moonlight
Clear as the day
Now come on woman, come follow me home

Literally no target audience apart from the very small elite segment out of the group of die-hard-fans (a dozen amiters, if any.... ?) Who would buy an album from a Musical that nobody has ever heard of and that has been  attended by ....  how many thousand people? No-brainer really.
