"Hi everyone,I'm very sorry to let you all know I will not be joining the Delain family on our upcoming north american tour. As some of you may know my wife is pregnant and she's due March 15th, when Delain and Nightwish are still in the USA. Obviously I need and want to be home during this period. I will, fortunately, at least be on the 70.000 tons of metal cruise. And I do hope there will be a swift sequel to this tour, so I can make up for it again real soon! Keep rocking!"
DelainSPECIAL SHOW ANNOUNCEMENT!Dear Delainers, on January the 29th we will storm the stage of Patronaat Haarlem again, with a show called SUCKERPUNCH, (not the movie;)) with special effects, special guests and special songs including brand new material. We are making a good habit out of ending an album's touring cycle with a special show celebrating the old, and introducing some of the new. You've seen this in the past in our November Rain concerts and most recently with My Masquerade. SuckerPunch will be the next in this line and we are really excited for this party!We hope to see many of you there!
