March 4, 2007, 17 years ago
CELTIC FROST have issued the following update:
"On the eve before embarking on the European leg of the "Monotheist" tour and then returning to the United States, Celtic Frost announce the band's new touring guitarist, V Santura of German black metal group DARK FORTRESS. Also, Celtic Frost singer and guitarist Tom Gabriel Fischer has entered an exclusive endorsement agreement with Ibanez, the company whose guitars he has been playing in the studio and on stage since the earliest HELLHAMMER days in 1982. Celtic Frost further announce the availability of exclusive Celtic Frost worker shirts through Celtic Frost's "Europe & Worldwide" webstore."As previously reported, Celtic Frost has been invited to play the special guest slot on the forthcoming TYPE O NEGATIVE tour in April and May 2007. Due to the preceding co-headliner tour with KREATOR in Europe which will conclude on April 5, 2007, in Hamburg, Celtic Frost will not be able to play all dates with Type O Negative. Immediately after the final show of the European tour, however, the group will fly to the United States to join Type O Negative for the first time on April 9, 2007, in Chicago and remain with the tour until its conclusion on May 8, 2007, in Baltimore, MD. Celtic Frost will be able to play a limited-duration special guest set of 45 minutes duration. In spite of the limited playing time, the band believes that this presents an important opportunity to play for the US audiences again and expand upon the foundation built in the course of last fall's successful 46-date tour of North America.
The following two Celtic Frost, Type O Negative, BRAND NEW SIN dates are confirmed:
April
9 - Metro - Chicago, IL11 - The Eagles Club - Milwaukee, WI
