ProgPower IV

All things being equal, yes. :) (Finances are of course the issue. As usual.)

Speaking of ProgPower, I just saw this... shocking!

The following statement is the official position on the resignation of the (5) former members of Circle II Circle:

As we approached the upcoming tour with Saxon and Doro, there were many financial and logistical issues that needed to be discussed and finalized. We (5) attempted to have a business meeting with Zak Stevens and management. Our request was denied. After learning that the entire band was to be replaced after the tour was completed, it became apparent to all of us that management had decided that our concerns were of no concern to them. There were many issues which plagued the planning of the tour. The band was simply tired of the general lack of respect that we were receiving from “C2C Inc.”.

It was a very tough decision for all of us. We have given 1000% to the success of this band and could no longer accept managements business practices.

We would like to thank the fans for their incredible support. We always looked forward to meeting new faces at each show. That is one of the things that we will miss. But rest assured, we will see you all again very soon!

Kevin Rothney, Shane French, Matt Laporte, Christopher Kinder, and John Zahner


Holy fuck.

:OMG:
 
yes... I heard this news... I am somwhat sad to hear this!

After hangning out with these guys that long weekend, I can honestly say they should have no trouble froming a new band and making some seriousy kick arse music!

All the C2C guys are extremely talented musicians, and most have a reputation in the scene, so I certainly hope they can pick up the peices and carry on in a new form.

Ironiclly, it seems at least one band that plays progpower breaks up, or reorganizes shortly after the festival.... I certainly hope that this curse is broken!
