VADER frontman Peter (guitars, vocals) has issued the following tour update

"The next part of Summer Festivals we started this time in Vader's HQ - Mariusz house in Ciechocinek. For short weekend trips we usually use buses or vans to travel. This time we took our heaviest artillery: our own nightliner!!! There's anything abort, that we need on tour - TV games, DVD, CD players also the most necessary tool... coffee express!!! The whole team: Jack, Waldi, January, Michael, Toni and our driver Kristoph were alredy waiting for us. We then loaded our gear, took some sleep and... drive to Germany.

The first show was Queens of Metal Fest in Schweinfurt. Swiss REQUIEM and Austrian (or better now: european...) BELPHEGOR joined us as well. So the team is collected. We already know this place also the response was tremendous! We were afraid a bit of showers reigning around but... in vain. After two hours long attempt of taking our bus out from deep mud we continued to Calais. We have spent the whole day traveling to Glasgow. The show in the capitol of Scotland like the other, which we were playing in between the festivals, were booked to avoid of returning to Poland for just 2-3 days before the next weekend. All in all our concerts in Soundhouse and terrible tight Purple Turtle in London were enough good to satisfy us and a couple of hundred Metal Heads. Next one was Holland and awesome club W2, were we raised Hell with our friends from Belphegor and then France and very special National Music Meeting in Thionnille. Several stages in the whole city center, a bit party like atmosphere and many happy people around. And again showers and... great show and response!!! There were so many visitors amongst the crowd, who never saw Vader before. Now They all know and wait for more.

Graspop was next. I never ever saw so professional prepared festival before. Indeed! Everything, that Fans or bands need was there. Quality first!!! So high level demands real good performance ... so we did! It was for sure one of Vader's best concert ever. 6.000 crazy Maniax welcomed us fantastic !!! There were many guys from Poland as well... Awsome!!!After the show me and my band mates spend some monies for new "dark clothing". And our second driver Radek joined the team that night too...

Hellfest Festival in France - where we played next day - is also one of the most famous extreme music meeting place in Europe today. Two feed deep mud and even some bad feeling after Korn cancelled their show a day before couldn't destroy still great atmosphere of the festival . We did the best that evening giving as much anger from the stage as we could. So did all Maniax... Slaughter!!!

Next three shows in Germany were enough interesting just because they happened. There's not many bands playing shows in festival season indeed. Trier, Essen ,Kiel (Kill !!!...) - three club shows with still awesome atmosphere. What should we add? We're heading to Sweden tonight. There are 4 shows in Scandinavia and Baltic Lands before us now. Until next time !!!! Support Metal !!!"
