ex-MEGADETH Bassist JAMES LOMENZO To Replace PAUL GRAY On HAIL! Tour
 With three weeks of dates booked throughout Europe and Asia, HAIL! — the supergroup featuring mainstays Tim "Ripper" Owens (BEYOND FEAR, YNGWIE MALMSTEEN, ex-JUDAS PRIEST, ICED EARTH), David Ellefson (MEGADETH) and Andreas Kisser (SEPULTURA) — has announced that it will not cancel its tour in the wake of its bassist Paul Gray's (SLIPKNOT) untimely death.
The band has released the following statement regarding the matter:
"On Monday we were dealt a devastating blow with Paul's passing two days before our departure. We discussed the situation and unanimously thought that in the face of this tragedy we needed to remain strong and push forward because Paul would have vehemently insisted that the show must go on. In a desperate situation we made an emergency call to James Lomenzo and James responded with a Herculean effort, on only one day's notice, to fly to Portugal and rescue the Rock In Rio festival. His immediate and unselfish call to arms single-handedly saved this entire tour."
James Lomenzo has had a long and very successful career, having played with WHITE LION, OZZY OSBOURNE, BLACK LABEL SOCIETY and, most recently, MEGADETH.
HAIL! has epitomized the old-school unity and brotherhood of the metal culture that its bandmembers have all grown out of and this is another example of that close-knit circle of friends coming together to help in a time of need.
HAIL! tour dates:
May 30 - Lisbon, Portugal - Rock In Rio Festival
Jun. 01 - Novosibirsk, Siberia - Izjum
Jun. 02 - Tomsk, Siberia - Fakal
Jun. 03 - Omsk, Siberia - Kristall
Jun. 04 - Ekaterinburg, Russia - TeleClub
Jun. 05 - Moscow, Russia - Tochka
Jun. 06 - Kiev, Ukraine - Bingo
Jun. 08 - Helsinki, Finland - Dante's Highlight
Jun. 09 - Tallin, Estonia - Rock Cafe
Jun. 11 - Kouvala, Finland - House Of Rock
Jun. 12 - Tampere, Finland - Sauna Open Air Festival
Jun. 14 - Madrid, Spain - Rock In Rio Festival

KAMELOT Signs Japanese Deal For New Album
 American/Norwegian power metallers KAMELOT have inked a deal with Marquee/Avalon Records for the Japanese release of their next album, tentatively due late summer. Marquee's Naohiro Yamazaki said in a statement, "Marquee/Avalon is happy to have KAMELOT — such a great band in our family and we are proud of announcing it. We all hope that KAMELOT's fame will be at a higher level with the next album. We trust the band a potential to become so."
KAMELOT vocalist Roy Khan added, "We are very excited about working with Marquee on the new album! We are also planning to return to Japan for some very special concerts with all the amazing fans there."
Greek guitarist Gus G. (OZZY OSBOURNE, FIREWIND, DREAM EVIL, ARCH ENEMY), EPICA singer Simone Simons and Jon Oliva (mastermind of SAVATAGE and JON OLIVA'S PAIN, co-creator/songwriter of the TRANS-SIBERIAN ORCHESTRA) are among the artists who are scheduled to make guest appearances on KAMELOT's forthcoming CD. Songtitles set to appear on the effort include "House On A Hill", "The Great Pandemonium" and "Hunters Season", the latter two of which were performed on the band's recently completed European headlining tour.
Simone — the longtime girlfriend of KAMELOT keyboardist Oliver Palotai — previously appeared on the song "The Haunting", which was included on KAMELOT's 2005 album "The Black Halo".
KAMELOT spent time at various studios — including the Gate Studio in Wolfsburg, Germany — under the watchful eye of Sascha Paeth and Miro as producers working on the highly anticipated follow-up to "Ghost Opera".
"The new songs are really inspiring," stated guitarist Thomas Youngblood. "We feel the long touring and time away from writing has been perfect for new ideas and an aggressive approach to the new songs."
Final release dates will be announced in the near future.
Due to "previously scheduled commitments," bassist Sean Tibbetts will be unable to join KAMELOT for the band's upcoming appearances at this year's Rock am Ring and Rock im Park festivals, set to take place June 4-6, 2010 in the German towns of Nürburgring and Nürnberg, respectively. Temporarily replacing him for these gigs will be KAMELOT's longtime producer Sascha Paeth.
KAMELOT will embark on its first North American tour in two years this fall. Support on the trek will come from LEAVES' EYES and BLACKGUARD.
