Wonderful indeed, but i kinda hoped for a day off between gigs in the future to avoid risk of more cancellations. Now there's Bratislava the day before this. On the other hand Eldritch may be fit as a fiddle in June, who knows these days....

Oh well, you say it... *sigh ... on the other hand, after months of time to recover, he might well be able to do that, if necessary with a walking stick given that we've seen him looking like a combat veteran as early as in the Dominion video already ... ;D :lol: ... But joking aside, heaven knows what's the cause of his illness after all, but if The Sisters were not convinced they could do it, I guess they wouldn't take on new commitments... :) ...

Excellent, Jane's Addiction and The Sisters on the same day at a festival. Guaranteed to clash on the schedule. Otherwise some decent bands there, but not really the eye-catching headliners that NovaRock usually attracts. Still very cool though. Also digging the photoshopped new band pic ;D
There is increasing evidence to suggest that Chris may have been being sarcastic.

I am overjoyed to see that they will be playing in summer already. But at the same time I wish Von would get enough rest after the 2023/2024 tour. Can't this girl he lives with just bind him to bed and not let him go before he really recuperates?

I don't know what annoys me the most about this image, how everything looks weirdly polished in certain areas and granular in others, almost like AI Art, or the fact that Von is wearing shades (as usual), but also has a extra pair of shades on his t-shirt collar

Jesus. That's awful. The last band photo was genuinely cool. This looks like it was made in MS Paint.

It does look a bit shopped doesn't it?
Either that or someone turned the contrast up way too much

If five months rest between gigs isn't enough then he shouldn't be continuing at all.
