ANATHEMA: DJ Sets In Istanbul, Athens Cancelled
September 17, 2005ANATHEMA guitarist/vocalist Vincent Cavanagh has issued the following statement via the group's official web site:
"To everyone planning to turn up at the clubs in Istanbul [Friday night] (Sept. 16) and in Athens (Sept. 18),unfortunately I have had to pull out. This is because I don't wanna miss out on rehearsing or playing our concert in London on the 19th. While I was really looking forward to playing a load of my favourite tunes, and getting a party going, I've got to get my priorities right. Maybe these DJ sets can be put back to a later date, at the moment I dont know. But we may come back to Turkey and Greece in some capacity sooner than you think... so watch this space. Again, i apologise to everyone who wanted to go. Have a great weekend anyway."
As previously reported, ANATHEMA will be opening for Finnish goth-metallers H.I.M. at the Shepherds Bush Empire in London on Monday, September 19.
ANATHEMA are currently writing and recording new material at Sewerside Studios in Yorkshire, U.K. for a tentative 2006 release. The band recently issued a DVD, "Were You There?", containing a full live show recorded on ANATHEMA's "A Natural Disaster" tour, an acoustic concert performed with a string quartet from the Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra, plus videos, live clips and other extra features. The artwork and menu designs have been conceived by Travis Smith.
