Merry Xmas & Happy New Year : thank you for 2009

We want to take this opportunity to wish all our fans, friends & families a very Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year. We've had an amazing 2009 & made many new friends. Some highlights - the release of our latest album "VR", the 20 date UK tour with Blaze Bayley, SOS Festival, the Bulldog Bash, Hellfire Festival, tour dates in Greece & Switzerland, UK tour with Michael Schenker Group.

Looking forward to 2010 & especially pleased to be confirmed for Hammerfest in March.

We've started writing for our next record & the outline of 3 or 4 songs at least is ready. We expect to start recording around the middle of 2010 & release in late Summer/early Autumn. Plenty of tour dates being planned & more news as soon as possible in the new year.

Thanks once again for supporting & helping us in an incredible 2009.

See you out there very soon!

Cheers!

MSG Tour : so far so good


Well, last night was the first night of the tour with Michael Schenker Group & what a fantastic start. A Manchester sell-out crowd turned up & we thank each & every one of you that supported us, the welcome we received was world class!

All went off well, the night opened by the quality of power metallers Powerquest who had to "lever" all 6 band members onto a tight stage area, plus guest vocalist on one song, making 7 people in-all at that point .... cosy! Then we stepped up, with a little more freedom to move around as a 3-piece which has a definite advantage at these times! Following our intro music "The Last Invention" we powered through "VR", "The Hostage", "Brotherhood" & our customary set-closer "Death By Lightning", with the crowd now in positive mood ready for Mr.Schenker to take the stage.

Thanks again, great night & a great start to the tour. Snapshot taken as above but some rather better quality photos to come courtesy of the maestro with the camera Neil Pilkington. We also have some video footage that will make its' way onto YouTube before too long.

Next up Sheffield tonight. Bring it on! Can't wait.

Cheers!

Back from Switzerland. Next up Chester then Michael Schenker tour

Back from Switzerland last night after the most incredible weekend at an amazing venue Z7. We'll be releasing plenty of photos & video footage over the next few days but for the moment we to want thank each & every one of you that were at the Z7 show & of course, Greece before that. Our first ventures overseas have been better than we dared hope for & we can't wait to do more. We're off to Belgium in February & have plans already for 2010. Watch this space!

Meanwhile, don't forget we're in Chester on Friday, warming up for the Michael Schenker tour which starts on December 16th in Manchester & carries on a further consecutive 7 dates in Sheffield, Dudley, Belfast, Bristol, Milton Keynes, Newcastle & Oxford. See you out there!

Back from Greece, it's Switzerland next!

We arrived back from Greece last night & with little more than 24 hours back on home soil, we fly to Switzerland tomorrow, ready to play the fantastic Club Z7 on Saturday, supporting the mighty Blaze Bayley. Greece was an absolute blast, with highs & lows as always with touring & we have lots to tell. No real time to tell our stories right now but next week when we have chance to catch up properly when we'll be back with more news, some video footage & of course "Scootergate"!?.... don't know what that is? Check out Blaze Bayley's blog or the news at Rock Radio Manchester, Blabbermouth or several other music websites where the latest stories are available. So, it's Switzerland first, then a big catch up & all getting ready for the Michael Schenker tour which starts in Manchester on 16th December. Good times / happy days. Thanks all & especially right now thanks to all those crazy Greek metal-head-banging bastards! \m/ You were awesome!

Hail!
