UFO Announce "Stand-In" Bassist For April/May Tour Dates
March 10, 2008, 16 years ago
UFO announced recently that the US Embassy in London had turned down bassist Pete Way's application for a working visa - even though the respective authorities in the US homeland had already approved it. At that time the band started to make arrangements for a bass player to stand in for Pete on their USA tour dates.
They have since posted the following update:
"With Pete having been denied a working visa to the USA the bass player who will be standing in for Pete on the April/May tourdates will be ROB De LUCA. More details to follow soon."UFO's North American tour schedule as follows:
