Kommentieren
Ex-STRYPER-Bassist Timothy Gaines neue Instrumental-CD "Breakfast @ Timothy's" wird Anfang September erhältlich sein. Hörbeispiele finden sich auf der MySpace-Seite von Timothy.
Auf dem US-Teil der "25th Anniversary Tour" wird Timothy Gaines Bassist Tracy Ferrie vertreten. Deutschland-Termine sind derzeit nicht bekannt, aber zumindest ein paar Europa-Termine stehen mittlerweile fest:
Januar 2010:
15 - Barcelona, Spain - Sala Apolo
16 - Madrid, Spain - La Riviera
20 - Biel, Switzerland - Kongresshaus
22 - Prague, Czech - Retro Music Hall
23 - Utrecht Netherlands - Tivoli Oudegracht
Die Band hat diesbezüglich bekanntgegeben:
"Bassist Tracy Ferrie will not be performing on the US leg of the Stryper tour. Instead, original bassist Timothy Gaines will be the sole bass player.
What was originally planned as a 2-set show, will now be one full 90-minute show, consisting of all the greatest hits and new Stryper material. The band will be wearing new yellow and black outfits designed by the original outfit designer. All original members, Michael Sweet, Robert Sweet, Oz Fox, and Tim Gaines will be performing on the 25th Anniversary US tour.
Tracy has made the very honorable decision, one in which we support, to put the needs of his family first. Contrary to what many may believe, most professional musicians (especially those with families) have other jobs when their band is not touring. And in order to provide for their families, they often need to find other means of work during non-touring times.
We are living in extremely difficult economic times whereby finding a good day-job is difficult. Tracy has a great one. One that provides well for his family. Leaving this job could put his family in a tough situation upon returning from tour. We support Tracy in this decision to ensure security for his family. At the same time, we're excited to get back out on the road and share our new music and the 25th Anniversary show with our friends and fans whom we have not seen in a long time.
We're honored to have been doing this for 25 years and blessed to have the opportunity to go out on tour this fall. Without you, our friends and fans, we would not have lasted this long.
Thank you. See you on the road soon."
