GRAVE DIGGER guitarist Manni Schmidt has issued the following update:
"Summer's EndingTrue to that motto was the Summer’s End Open Air festival in my birth town Andernach which was the last festival show for Grave Digger in this season. It was a great and relaxed atmosphere there. In a spontaneous action RAGE invited me smashing the well-known 'Don’t Fear The Winter' along with them. That caused lots of amazed faces in front of the stage and was lots of fun as well! But 13 years after I left the band I had to practice a bit on the quiet… ;-)
See pictures of the festival at this location.
The following shows will be a big surprise as well for the fans as those will be the first ones to be performed with a second guitarist! Haha, yeah, you got that correctly! We’ve got an old acquaintance and great guitarist to enforce the guitar front of Grave Digger. More on that and a little competition can be found on www.grave-digger.de
In the past there have been some requests on what equipment I use. I updated the gallery with some newer photography of it. In Andernach I used the Bulldozer amp by Fame for the first time. Incredible! That’s the best amp I’ve been playing on for a long time! Check it out at Musicstore Köln who sell Fame equipment!"
See you soon!
Manni
