By the way: I voted for the Sisters as most wanted at the Summer Breeze Festival in August 2016. So far I got one Like: someone who asked for the Nephilim also. We can hope; and @Andrew,Chris,Ben - if Summer Breeze asks you - please say yes :-)

Many, but they mostly keep in silence, except if there is a specific question and they know the answer or something similar :)

Fiasco? Last one (2014) was finally business-as-usual, after past f**k-ups, I would say... But omitting Central/Eastern Europe (with exception of Vienna, geographically) is worth mentioning, of course. But same as Italy etc....

Question is: is that the end of schedule and scheduling that tour. If yes, then: why? Lack of interest? TSOM/AE decided that he wants only that few gigs? Ben and/or Chris had other plans, so it was only option/time for playing that gigs?

I think he meant some other fiasco.

The Sisters tour even when there's no particular reason, so why shouldn't they when the band turn 35? From what I remember, the first date at all announced before the Silver Bullet tour 2006 came around christmas, less than 2 months before tour start.

I think Vienna is the first date on this *leg* of the tour, but I don't think Fribourg is the last. Without knowing it looks like they're heading southwest.

Edit: Munich, not Vienna.

It was my response to Sukhoi post, part about "omitting Central/Eastern Europe".
I'm agree, it look like or middle of the tour or start of another leg.
Same about direction, but they may go south and play few gig in Italy.

And I forgot about yet another anniversary.

Geriatric rock festival. But it's nice that someone it's still interested in bringing them to PL.

I suppose that most TSOM fans have reached the age where a spa hotel on site is a bonus.

I see that my words for some were a bit offending, what wasn't something that I was intended; kinda back pain, innit? :wink:

This festival is well known in PL, I see bands like Animals Smokie, The Troggs or Carlos Santana as disnosaurs of rock music; bands/artists with 50 years of expirience in music. I belive that most of their followers, those with money, would like to go for gig between SPA, and, of course, there's nothing wrong with that - their time and money - do with it as you please, as long as it doesn't hurt one.

But to be fair, for last few years this festival is split in two parts: one - mentioned "geriatric"*/oldie rock; second - "youngtimer"* rock bands (band with 25-30 yrs on stage). To this "yountimer" rock bands TSOM fits, and there's where they gonna play. That was my mistake.

Anyhow, due to other plan for that particular weekend, I know that now that I can't make it.

Nice backpedalling Bartek

I would class those with 25-30 years experience as dinosaurs - I certainly wouldn't call them "youngtimers"
