THE POODLES - Guitarist Henrik Bergqvist Returns
September 9, 2009, 15 years ago
Swedish glam metal act THE POODLES have issued the following update:
"As some of you may have noticed Henrik (Bergqvist) has not been present for a while. Due to a slight scheduling mix-up Henrik was in Colombia while the rest of the guys were back home in Sweden. The dear old friend and amazing guitar player Marcus Jidell has been kind enough to help us out with this rather awkward situation, standing in for Henrik and we'd like to thank him very much for his help. Anyhow, now Henrik's back and things are back to normal.
Meanwhile the planning and preparations for the upcoming tour continues. A news flash that just reached me says that Inglostadt - Paradox is now confirmed on November 17th and negotiations are going on with Rome among other places. We hope to be able to present the final tour schedule as well as the support act within a few days.
On the home front we're off to play Gislaved on Saturday, September 12th and The Poodles have also been confirmed to perform at Radio Galan in Stockholm on September 23rd.
In support of the release of their brand new album, Clash Of The Elements, The Poodles will set off on a three week journey through Europe starting October 31st.
