Kasim and The New Cars From 12th May until 10th June 2006 Kasim joined Elliot Easton, Greg Hawkes, Todd Rundgren and Prairie Prince to tour as The New Cars on their Road Rage Tour. Unfortunately the tour was canceled as Elliot Easton broke his shoulder. They played 2 concerts in September'06 and then the tour resumed in November and December. Despite Kasim's heavy schedule of Meat Loaf commitments at that time, he played most of the gigs on the winter leg of the tour and 7 more in summer'07. Unfortunately it appears unlikely that any more gigs will be played at the present time.
