Gus G. forlader Dream Evil
Lige inden Dream Evil skal på tour med Saxon, har lead guitarist Gus G. valgt at forlade bandet, for at fokusere mere på hans eget band, Firewind. Gus G. giver os her et lille statement:
"Hello my friends! Hope this message finds u well. I would like to announce to you, that I've decided to leave Dream Evil for different reasons, mainly personal. I would also like to concentrate on my own band, Firewind. However, this doesn't mean that I'm not friends with the guys in the band. I split with them under very friendly circumstances. I wish them the best in the future. As for me, you can count on hearing my new releases coming up later this year. I'm sorry if I dissapoint some of you, but........ the show must go on! Stay Metal!!"
Resten af gutterne i Dream Evil er kede af splittet, men alligevel glade for allerede at have fundet en erstatning. Bandet fortæller:
"There are no hard feelings; we are still best friends and we wish Gus nothing but the best in his future musical carrier. Second! The good news: Dream Evil is happy to announce that guitar virtuoso and axe-swinger Mark U Black is our new lead guitarist. This guy rips and shreds like a maniac in a true 80's guitar hero style We feel that with Mark's skills and his ability to give Dream Evil his full time attention, this change will bring Dream Evil to the next level. We have already played some festival shows with him in Europe, and he delivered! We are very much looking forward to joining Saxon on the road in September/October as we continue to spread the word about our latest album "The Book Of Heavy Metal". All right in the night!"
Foruden Saxon touren, spiller Dream Evil et meget ekslusivt show i Underworld, London i år, sammen med de Italienske labelmates Labyrinth.
Husk Saxon og Dream Evil i Pumpehuset, d. 17. oktober!
