GOREFEST - "We're Looking At Three Cancelled Tours, About 50 Cancelled Gigs, All Within 11 Months"

Guitarist Frank Harthoorn from Dutch death metallers GOREFEST has issued the following update:
"Yet another tour is being cancelled, this time by Metallysee. Ever since SIX FEET UNDER pulled out of this tour a couple of months ago, this has been a bit of an ongoing mess. We thought we'd stick with the plan, since this would be about the last chance to do some proper touring for La Muerte before we hit the studio for the next one. When we heard headliner TRAIL OF TEARS split up last week, we already kind of felt this one slipping away, so we suggested to Metallysee we'd head out with a couple of the remaining bands. You know, join forces, cut prices, split the difference and whatnot. Metallysee, however, wasn't having any of that, so come the end of 2006 we're looking at three cancelled tours, about 50 cancelled gigs, all within 11 months. That's something, isn't it? Almost looks like that curse Dani Filth (CRADLE OF FILTH) put on us back in '94 is finally kicking in. So come the end of 2006 we're looking at three cancelled tours, about 50 cancelled gigs, all within 11 months.Oh well, worse things happen at sea, I guess. Thankfully, Ed (Warby - drums) and Boudewijn (Vincent Bonebakker - guitar) have come up with some frightfully heavy shit for us to play with. They even wrote some songs as well, so for the next months, we'll be throwing riffs, fills, leads and, well, stuff at each other. And while we're having fun doing that, why don't you people head over to our forum and join in the frolics over there? You'll find lots of old ladies to give a right good scare, and who knows, you might even get lucky with some of 'em!"
