Jon Oliva legt SAVATAGE endgültig zu den Akten
Kommentieren
Soeben erreichte uns eine Pressemitteilung von Jon Oliva (JON OLIVA'S PAIN), in welcher der Mountain King verlauten lässt, dass keine weiteren Aktivitäten unter dem Banner SAVATAGE geplant seien, was etwaige Liveaktivitäten mit einschließt.
Während sich Jon Oliva selbst mit seiner eigenen Band JON OLIVA'S PAIN voll ausgelastet fühlt, sind die übrigen Mitglieder nach wie vor mit dem TRANS SIBERIAN ORCHESTRA beschäftigt, was keinen Raum für SAVATAGE mehr lasse. Jon betont aber, dass JON OLIVA'S PAIN so nah wie nur möglich am Schaffen von SAVATAGE sei.
Hier die originale Pressemitteilung im Wortlaut:
Hi, this is Jon Oliva, and I would like to set the record straight regarding any Savatage reunion tour rumors. After careful consideration by management, former band members and myself, I would like to release this official statement regarding Savatage:
The Trans Siberian Orchestra is growing at an amazing rate. Our 2nd non-Christmas record (Nightcastle) will be released later this year. Following that, TSO will immediately begin recording ist next Christmas record while planning year- round touring and possible overseas performances.
Due to increasing demand for the TSO brand, Savatage is unable to plan any future concert appearances. TSO has become a year- round responsibility and it is impossible to shut down this massive operation in order to perform any Savatage shows.
Jon Oliva's Pain is the vehicle fort he continued release and performance of my metal music. It requires the balance of my time and energy, and I am happy to be recording and touring with such talented musicians. Our 3rd CD, "Global Warning", will be released in Europe via AFM Records in mid April 2008. Jon Oliva's Pain is as close to Savatage as you can get!
I hope this puts to rest any more speculation about the availability of Savatage in the future. Should you have any further questions, please direct your emails to me at ckindercash@hotmail.com or send a message to webmaster@jonoliva.net
Thanks, and we look forward to bringing the "Pain" to you for many years to come!
Sincerely,
Jon Oliva
