FLOTSAM AND JETSAM have announced another date in California. Upcoming California dates now include
May

Flotsam And Jetsam drummer Craig Nielsen recently issued the following update:
"The band wanted to wait until it was for sure, and now that it is, we would like to announce that original guitarist Michael Gilbert has rejoined the band after Ed Carlson has officially decided to no longer tour or record.There was absolutuly zero bad blood in this development. Ed Carlson is a brother to all of us and his unique musical genius will be deeply missed.
Michael is 100% in it. His playing is on fire as is his spirit for the band that he was so important in putting on the scene. He will be joining the band on the upcoming European tour, starting April 1st in Holland.
As for the very delayed record, The Cold, it has been confirmed and reconfirmed that the mix and final mastering will finally happen this month. The tracking has been complete for some time now and because of a series of unfortunate but unavoidable delays, this record will have a release date decided on this month.
Finally, the band has just confirmed a headline show at The Galaxy Theater in Orange County, CA on Saturday, May 1st. The last show the band played there was the California Metalfest with TESTAMENT. That was a GREAT show.
Come down and see us with the O.G. Mike Gilbert!!"
