6/11/02 - It's official, Steve will be going out on tour with Nevermore as special guest guitarist.
Statement from NEVERMORE:
"We just want to clear up some confusion regarding Steve Smyth's involvement with us. He hasn't left Testament or Dragonlord to join Nevermore. He's just helping us out with these upcoming European festivals and US Warped tour dates. We need 2 guitars players live, so when our previous touring guitarist got himself a full time gig we immediately asked Steve. He'd always come out and see us play when we were in town. We'd do the same when he'd come through Seattle. He's really been a great friend of ours for years and we're lucky to get to do some shows with him now. We need to send out special thanks to Chuck and Eric for their support in this and allowing Steve to help us out."
Statement from Steve Smyth:
"I've always been a Nevermore fan and look forward to playing with them. I want to thank Chuck, Eric, Stevie D, Jon and Lyle for all their support."
Statement by Warrel Dane made June 13th:
"....so now it's official that Steve Smyth from Testament/Dragonlord will be helping us out with the 2nd guitar situation for our Euro and US festival dates... we are really looking forward to this and are really grateful to the Testament guys for letting us borrow him!...as far as the songlist for the Euro fests....we will be playing a broad spectrum of songs from most of our discs, 2 songs from the self titled debut included... and perhaps a surpise or two...all for now ...stay metal"
