AT THE GATES RE-UNION!!!

Postby zykloned on Fri Oct 19, 2007 7:45 am

Oh joy! This is pant wettingly good news! YAAYAYAA!!!

From ze Myspace bulletin:


" Yes, it's true...
AT THE GATES will reunite for some shows next summer (2008).

The following festival dates are confirmed so far:

04-06 july - Ruis Rock, Finland
31july-02 aug - Wacken Open Air, DE
15-17 aug - Bloodstock, Derby, UK

But there're more shows to come....

Guitarist Anders comments on the re-union:
"Well, it felt like the timing was right for once. We have been talking about a possible
reunion for years now, but this was the first time everything fell into place.
For me personally, it feels like getting closure. The break-up over ten years ago
was abrupt and left a bad vibe between us that took years to get over.
I feel that we have a better relationship today and a more relaxed approach to
who we are and what we do. It feels like the time is right to get together and play some shows
Try to catch us live in summer 2008. It could be your last chance"
