TRIPTYKON's Tom Gabriel Warrior Comments On Rock Hard Festival Headlining Show
June 7, 2011, 13 years ago
TRIPTYKON, the group formed by former HELLHAMMER/CELTIC FROST singer, guitarist, and main songwriter Tom Gabriel Warrior, will headline the prestigious Rock Hard Festival in Gelsenkirchen (Germany) this Friday, June 10th.
Tom Gabriel Warrior: "It is an immense honor and a privilege to be asked back to perform at the Rock Hard Festival, especially given my previous band Celtic Frost's extremely regrettable inability to fulfil its earlier commitment to the festival. The Rock Hard Festival is an event unlike any other in the scene, both due to the audience and those behind the festival. We will pay homage to that fact with Triptykon by playing a concert which has never been performed before and, in this form, will likely never be repeated again."
Triptykon will also do a signing session at the festival on June 10th, from 7 - 7:45 PM (CET).
