FORBIDDEN Comment On First Tour In 15 Years
November 3, 2010, 14 years ago
Reactivated San Francisco Bay Area thrashers FORBIDDEN are set to embark on their first tour in 15 years, this time as direct support to OVERKILL. Immediately proceeding the trek the band will continue on their own headlining tour with EVILE, GAMA BOMB and BONDED BY BLOOD.
“It's been 15 years since Forbidden has actually toured in North America,“ commented an enthusiastic Craig Locicero. “That blows my fucking mind to say it! The funny thing is that even when we did tour here, we never properly did it. It was always a very short cycle with little or no support from the labels. Well, times have changed and so has Forbidden's situation. With Nuclear Blast having our backs and properly promoting and supporting Omega Wave, I feel a sense of hope for this band that we have never felt before. Strange feeling, really. But we will take it.
Our goal is to get better every night and eventually become the live band that we never got to be. That takes dedication and a lot of hard work. We're digging in commiting to just that.
We hope our fans will appreciate us as much as we appreciate them. See you all on the road soon!“
