SOILWORK Guitarist PETER WICHERS To Sit Out Upcoming Festival Shows
May 9, 2009, 15 years ago
As previously reported, SOILWORK will perform at the upcoming Sweden Rock and Sauna Open Air festivals. They have announced that guitarist Peter Wichers will not perform at these shows. He has issued the following statement:
"Dear Soilwork Fans!Me and my wife are expecting a little baby boy any day now, and I have therefore decided to stay home this Summer to spend some well-deserved time with my family. This unfortunately means that I will not be performing with Soilwork at the upcoming festival shows in Europe.
A good friend of Soilwork, Mr David Andersson, will step in and fill my spot for these shows, but have no fear! I'll be back with the boys again later this year when we get ready to hit the studio!
So please do me a favor, have a few beers for me and raise the horns to the sky for my brothers in Soilwork as they tear it up in Sweden and Finland!"
Cheers!!!
/Peter
