RUNNING WILD Guitarist Says Cancelled Festival Appearances Are Not His Fault
June 23, 2004RUNNING WILD guitarist Bernd Aufermann has posted the following message on his web site:
"Hello everybody. Sad news about RUNNING WILD and the cancellation of the festival activities: SORRY NOT MY FAULT.
"Can you imagine, me sitting & preparing the new setlist for weeks and travel to rehearsal to find out that the BACKLINE situation is unclear and as a result the band won't do ANY festivals??? DISAPPOINTMENT is a more friendlier term about my mood. I don't want to comment this, since I don't know any details. In fact I'd like to point out my status here: I'm nothing more or less than the LIVE GUITARIST of RUNNING WILD, I won't play a single track on the new album and there won't be any songs written by me, therefore I have no in-depth view and can't (won't) comment what happened. So many emails reached me and all I can say is 'SORRY folks', I don't know when, where and what will happen with RUNNING WILD in the next time. Rolf continues to record the new album but a tour or concerts are far from being planned.
"LIKE IT STATED BEFORE: I'D LIKE TO PLAY OUT MORE — this refers me to the next topic:
"CIRCLE II CIRCLE: Zak Stevens will be on tour and he invited me to play a gig with him in the Zeche Bochum on Monday the 28th of June — Blaze Bailey will be there as well. Finally 3 songs I wrote for Zak will be released on his new album which will be out in August / September.
"ANGEL DUST asked me if I would like to be part of their new album and I would gladly join in for some real hard 'n' heavy stuff again! I keep you updated!
"SHINE INC songs are finished, looking for a decent record company to promote it! More & More gigs are coming in for the POWERSTATION which will be a great refund for the missed shows."
