Hello Everybody and Happy New Year!

Friday, 13 January 2012

We hope you all had a marvelous Christmas and a fantastic New Years Eve.

We had such a great year in 2011 and we would like to thank every single one of you who made this year one of our most successful years ever. Our World tour and album release was a blast,  we enjoyed every minute of it.

Also, our social network sites are going very well and we are happy to have made more than 40.000 friends on Facebook in just one year!!!

Everyone is  already working behind the scenes and the band will be entering the studio at the end of January to begin writing the new album. This will be our main focus. We are looking at a release date of either autumn 2012 or early 2013.

Of course we will also be playing at some festivals this year. We are happy to announce that we have confirmed 2 festivals in Germany: Rock In Den Ruinen and the mighty Wacken Open Air! There are more to come!

We will keep you updated about our plans and working status and wish you all the best for the upcoming year.

Hi from Biff

Monday, 02 January 2012

Did the last show of Call To Arms world tour on Tuesday. Last Night went to see Rock of Ages in London. Fantastic show. All of the cast were on top form – the singing was spot on. Hats off to them all, every night plus matinees is hard-core. Went backstage to meet the cast and got to meet up with Justin Lee Collins. I didn't know he could sing and dance so well.

Anyway a good night was had and you should go and see the show - it puts you right back in the eighties and I should know - I was there!

 

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
