FIREWIND: Mexican Dates Cancelled

January 27, 2010

Greek melodic metal act FIREWIND, which features in its ranks current OZZY OSBOURNE guitarist Gus G., has cancelled its previously announced Mexican shows. The band states, "FIREWIND would like to express their disappointment at not being able to meet their Mexican fans, and to play for them in February.

This is indeed very disappointing. We have been putting the dates together for sometime now. Sadly, our promoter let us down and we have had to pull the shows. On a good note, we will be returning to Mexico at a later date, so watch [our official web site]."

Affected shows:

Feb. 12 - Mexico City - Hard Rock Live
Feb. 13 - Puebla, Mex - Bulldog
Feb. 14 - Mexico City - Bicentennial Fest

FIREWIND recently parted ways with drummer Mark Cross (ex-HELLOWEEN, METALIUM) due to personal differences. Sitting behind the kit for FIREWIND for the band's three shows in Mexico in February was supposed to be Michael Ehre (ULI JON ROTH, KEE MARCELLO).

FIREWIND is currently working on material for a new studio album, tentatively due later in the year via Century Media Records.

FIREWIND's first-ever live effort, "Live Premonition", was released all across Europe in December 2008 and is available as DVD, 2CD and deluxe DVD+2CD set offering a stunning 22-song set filmed and recorded in 2008 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.
