The Halford/Testament tour saga continues......

[pest666]

This was just posted by Halford's manager John Baxter on the Halford site:

[font=verdana, arial, helvetica]Following up on yesterday's news; I've spoken at length w. all bands on TMG Tour. Nearly all have commitments in June, etc., and have made their plans to return home.

Testament's Manager and I have agreed to re-capture as many dates from this tour as possible. Sometime this / next week I will begin releasing confirmed west coast tour dates, etc., for the following lineup:

Halford
Testament
Special Guest

Depending on venue availabilities, etc., the bands will try and work through June / early July; covering as many of the formally scheduled cities as we can. We will also look at adding some markets which were not scheduled initially.

More details to follow.

Thank you.[/font]

Sweet. I vote for Death Angel as the special guest.

How about this .... Why doesn't Testament just drop the bad luck charm (halford) and play whatever shows they can , then start working on the new record ?

 

[MindInsane]

Sweet. I vote for Death Angel as the special guest.

I second that vote! Those guys OWN live!

 

[MindInsane]

Is it just me..or does it seem like the Halford camp has turned this tour into one big huge cluster fuck?? I feel sorry for the bands that were here from Europe! Shitty deal all together!

 

[pest666]

just this tour? what about the dates starting back in Vegas in December??

Oh, good. As long as Testament's still on the tour.

But I suppose if my theory's correct, Worcester won't be one of those cities they can reschedule...

 

[Lies and Perfidy]

I'm going to guess that your theory is one of those "(x) hates me and will never play near me no matter what" things...

 

[Shadeskull]

Man Death Angel is indeed awesome! I vote for them too.

But fuck, we need some entertainment in the east coast too. Everything seems to stay in the bay area.

No, my theory is that there's a conspiracy to keep Testament out of Massachusetts.

 

[Lies and Perfidy]

Probably run by the same guys keeping Overkill out of the Bay Area.

 

[ChaosWithoutProphecy]

im very glad that they will still come to the west coast, hopefully they will make up both shows on the 6th and the 8th so i can see em twice. as for the "special guest" , i would suggest bands like death angel, cryptopsy, krisiun, or even bands like iced earth or dark angel. that would fucking rule.
