So, how does this effect the US Candlemass tour? They just gonna grab someone else, or post-pone/cancel it... anyone in the know?

He was convicted of stealing CDs with a retail value of SEK 3 million (approximately $490,000).

Holy...

 

[AsModEe]

a musician sentenced to prison for stealing music.... now that's what I call irony

 

[Tide In Mind Out]

wowzers

 

[Captain Beard]

Well this is interesting.

 

[Shmu]

Indeed

 

[Lies and Perfidy]

stupid fuckshitting cockholster better not get the cunting tour cancelled

 

[Tide In Mind Out]

well, if they cancel it, then rob lowe will have no choice but to spend the spring at scarborough faire! muwhaahaaha.

 

[EricT]

Well, they have no other dates till the US tour in may, so that gives them 2 months from now to pick up another guitarist and teach him the songs. Or they can just one guitar it, Lasse is a pretty awesome guitarist... but I have a feeling that'd sound pretty fucking odd on A LOT of songs. Imagine Solitude without the kick-ass heavy riffing behind the solo...

 

[Will Bozarth]

they better not fucking cancel the tour. I'm sure they can get someone to take over.. I say get fucking John Perez.

 

[EricT]

That'd be pretty awesome...

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

I'll do it.

 

[Captain Beard]

I'd like that too. Perez, not you.

 

[dreaming neon darkspot]

buh-bye tour

 

[Psychonaut]

This does not bode well

 

[EricT]

I'm hoping most people in the thread are aware that Mappe is just the Rhythm guitarist, so it should be pretty simple to replace, if the band is willing to look. Or they might already have someone in, just haven't announced it yet.

I'm sure lowe would just pump a few beers in Perez and kick his ass onto the stage if need be.

 

[dreaming neon darkspot]

i've just found it easier to live life pessimistically

 

[Det Som Engang Var]

This is hella gay although I'd rather see Solitude Aeturnus a second time to be honest.

 

[dreaming neon darkspot]

i'm more down with candlemass, tbh.

 

[Captain Beard]

I prefer CM with ol' hamfist, sadly. It's just another Rob Lowe band to me now.
