HUGHES HONOURED IN BULGARIA

Rock icon GLENN HUGHES has been made an Honorary Citizen of Kavarna in Bulgaria after fans flocked to see the former Deep Purple star's concert there yesterday (06May07).

Devotees flooded the coastal town's annual music festival to catch a glimpse of Hughes, prompting local officials to bestow a title on him.

Hughes says, "I am happy that I have been conferred the title."

But the veteran rocker's trip to Bulgaria wasn't all fun, games and honorary titles - Hughes is on a mission to support a group of Bulgarian nurses who have been sentenced to death on charges of deliberately infecting Libyan children with HIV.

The singer/bass player is planning a concert in support of the nurses.
