Tour
Henjo's eye surgery went better than expected. Nevertheless Henjo cannot play the shows in Lichtenfels, Prag, Langen and Saarbrücken. The band decided to engage guitar player Kasperi Heikkinen from Finland again to play the four shows mentioned above. Kasperi already replaced Henjo for a few shows in 2006.
Due to a Retina-Detachment, Henjo had to go to hospital yesterday and will undergo surgery today.
Therefore the shows in Saarbrücken and Langen will NOT take place as planned. The show in Langen will be moved to the following Monday the 22nd of march. Saarbrücken will be on tuesday the 23rd of March.
The shows in Lichtenfels and Prague will happen as planned.
