FIREWIND: Greek, Bulgarian Shows Postponed

December 10, 2008

Greek melodic metallers FIREWIND have issued the following update:

"Due to the complete anarchy, disorder and chaos that goes on in Greece at the moment, we're in the unfortunate position to inform you that the upcoming shows in Greece and Bulgaria this weekend will not happen and are postponed. We feel that the situation is not safe for anyone right now and it's beyond our control to make these shows happen. We appreciate your understanding and support.

"The shows will now take place on the following dates:

Jan. 09 - Sofia, Bulgaria - Blue Box Club
Jan. 10 - Thessaloniki, Greece - Principal Club Theater
Jan. 11 - Athens, Greece - Gagarin 205

"With special guests ELDRITCH and Tara Teresa

"To those who have already purchased tickets: The tickets are still valid for the shows! We really hope that things calm down and we will rock with you very soon!"

Tara was last seen performing with FIREWIND at various festivals in 2006 and collaborated with the band on the "Breaking The Silence" single (see video below),which broke the Top 20 in Greece and remained on the chart for several weeks.

FIREWIND's first-ever live effort, "Live Premonition", was released all across Europe this month and is available as DVD, 2CD and deluxe DVD+2CD set offering a stunning 22-song set filmed and recorded earlier this year in the band's hometown of Thessaloniki.

The 2CD version of "Live Premonition" consists of the audio portion of the main show on two separate CDs, available for the price of one CD. The DVD also features many extras such as behind-the-scenes footage, special acoustic live performances, promo clips and much more.
