Danish rockers D.A.D have issued the following update:

"It would be unsuitable to name D.A.D Denmark's national

rock band. Such a title is too dry, boring and pompous. But what can we then call them in stead? For it is difficult to list any other Danish rock bands who with almost 25 years' experience under their belt can go on a tour in Denmark in big sport centers and arenas; who can still put together a set list consisting of a continuous increase of new tunes and sing-a-long enticing rock classics; and who has a reputation for out-doing themselves again and again in a demonstration of unfailing live energy and visual abundance. Maybe we should simply stick to calling them – D.A.D.

There is – after all – only one D.A.D. In a few months D.A.D will travel around Denmark on a tour named Monster Philosophy '09, beginning in Forum Horsens on January 30, 2009 and ending in Forum, Copenhagen, on March 7.

At the Danish Grøn Koncert 2008 tour the audience experienced a D.A.D in top form, who received lots of praise when critics passed judgment on the tour. Already at that point in time – the summer 2008 – D.A.D revealed a couple of new tunes. On November 10, D.A.D will release their 10th studio album, Monster Philosophy, and the set list for the following "Monster Philosophy"-tour will include a luscious selection of songs from the new album, which with usual respect for the audience and their own catalog of songs will be intertwined with a wide selection of D.A.D classics. Tickets go on sale from Saturday, October 4.
