TROUBLE: Deep Rock Drive Webcast Cancelled

June 17, 2008

Legendary Chicago doomsters TROUBLE have issued the following statement:

"The Deep Rock Drive show scheduled for July 11th that was to be webcast on DeepRockDrive.com has been cancelled by Deep Rock Drive. The band will be making an official statement on this show's cancellation later in the week. We are working on having a TROUBLE show at another venue on July 11th in Las Vegas, NV. Deep Rock Drive has informed us that all tickets sold will be fully refunded. We will inform everyone as soon as the new show has been scheduled."

Professionally recorded audio of TROUBLE's entire concert at this year's Roadburn festival, which took place April 17-20 at 013 in Tilburg, Holland, is available for streaming at this location (Windows Media).

Kory Clarke of WARRIOR SOUL joined TROUBLE in late April as the group's new frontman.

TROUBLE founder and guitarist Rick Wartell explained: "It was a mutual agreement [between now-former TROUBLE singer Eric Wagner and the rest of the band to go our separate ways]. You need to follow your heart in this business and if you are not into it 100% then it is time to move on. We all felt it was the best thing for all parties involved. There are no hard feelings. I'm sure Eric will continue making music and we wish him the best."

Wartell went on to say: "We are very excited to have Kory step in and take over the vocals for TROUBLE. He's been one of my favorite frontmen in this industry for many years. He will add a new dimension that we can use. It's not like we just picked out some guy to fill in, this is one of rock's most dynamic and creative frontmen in the industry. I know that when TROUBLE fans get a taste of what Kory does they will not be disappointed at all. Anyone who has seen Kory with WARRIOR SOUL already knows what to expect, and it's awesome."
