After having finished the first leg of the most successful world tour the
band has played up to now, Edguy will enhance their tour and hit the stage
of several festivals, plus an additional full single show in Saarbrücken on
May 21st. "We haven't played that area in ages and for some reason it
didn't fit in the routing and schedule of the regular tour, so we kind of
stretch the tour out a little".
After Saarbrücken Edguy will also
play the festivals listed below:
21.05.2009 GER - Saarbrücken -
Garage 22.05.2009 GER - Rieden, Kreuth - Wacken Rocks 23.05.2009 GER -
Aurich - Wacken Rocks 20.06.2009 GER - Dischingen - Festival am

Metal 07.07.2009 SLO - Tolmin - Metalcamp 10.07.2009 CZE - Zlin - Masters
of Rock Festival 11.07.2009 SWE - Kilafors - Rockweekend
"Edguy
deliver a noise that is both: Gigantic and hilarious! (...) The whole thing
is infectiously, irresistibly enjoyable that by the end no one in the
audience would be suprised if Bill and Ted turned up to announce that world
piece had been achieved via the glory of Flying Vs, powerchords, and the
throwing of some seriously silly rock poses!" Kerrang Magazine Britain

747 - STRANGERS IN THE NIGHT
“Hey people, I am sitting in a hotel room in Tokyo waiting for tonite’s show. Just been surfing a bit and found this one, pretty cool:
Saxon is a killer band, I remember I didn’t know the lyrics and Biff suggested just to improvise a little. The performance was explosive, and so was my appendix that had to be removed the next day in a hospital nearby. Saxon causes appendicitis! Cheeerzz, Tobi"

STATEMENT ABOUT “ARGENTINA-INCIDENT”
There was no vandalism on stage! The truth is that Tobias indeed was pissed off about the dysfunctional monitor system on stage and after trying to get it fixed finally threw the wedges into the photo pit. Nobody got hurt, nothing got damaged, except from the wedges that – due to the band had been already “damaged at that point”. Tobias explains: “I do not apologize as I did what everybody would have done, we are a Rock’n’Roll band, nobody got beaten up, nobody got hurt, I just threw a few fucking speakers around, that were crap anyway. I don’t know why people don’t stop to write shit about it, The Who wrecked whole venues, so who am I to ask for permission to remove some dysfunctional electronic garbage?”
