More info [/URL]NEWZ, it's in spanish, so I can sum it up like this:
1.- Jacobo Zamudio & Jairo Izquierdo from Colombia cheated the tour agency by sending them fake vouchers.
2.- The tourdates got complicated, because it's planned as a whole, if one country it's in trouble, all the other countries get affected!
3.- New dates are being worked out, tentatively December 2010!

CHARGOLA PROD Y 20&20 PROD

So we'll just have to wait & see... sad news, hope they can finally make it... I've waited for more than 20 years, a couple of months will do no harm!!!

What a drag!

I haven't posted anything around here in, errr, years... But now that the South American tour is officially cancelled I had to drop by and cry a river. Really.

I even had an interview scheduled with the band! Can you imagine?

There were just 48 hours to go and I got this goddamn call saying there would be no Voivod on Saturday.

What about you, Slaytanic? Did you survive the bad news?

Hey Eddy, long time eh? Como estão as coisas?

Well, there's still the hope that the guys will come in December, so let's see. But it was indeed a bummer to learn just a week away from the show that the guys would no longer come.

"Forty-five moments of perfection translated through a cautionary escape into the perils of the mundane, the inherent entropy in ultimate order, and the potential threats of eternal, unchecked apathy in civilization; all cloaked in musical expression so thoughtful, creative and forward thinking that almost a quarter-century later, few can even comprehend it, much less match it."

Good luck for December

Thanks Hypergrrl!
We are all crossing our fingers over here. Rumours say that the gig will be rescheduled for december, and that Anihilator would be playing that gig as well ... maybe at the end it will be for the better.
*fingers crossed*

Yep, I knew about this gig, but unless they are here, onstage, playing , I won't keep my hopes that high.

Yeah, Forbidden is like the cherry on top ... a dream gig ... though I'm not sure on how Russ Anderson is hitting those high notes nowadays and I still haven't listened to "The Omega Wave" ... maybe I should

Great Igor! It's good to have all those bands playing, though I hope it doesn't affect the time VOIVOD will spend on stage!!! I want a full-long-great set list, nos just a half an hour set
¿Can we ask for some tracks to be played?

That's why I'm going to Antofagasta also ... less bands on the bill, smaller venue. Perfect!

Now I have some time to write a little more about the concert! Well, at noon I met with Away at the Hotel, 'cause he carried for me a copy of his book (what a privilege for me!!!) and I bought for him a couple of Chilean Art Books, I also had the chance to meet the other guys and accompany them to the soundcheck, ALMOST UNREAL FOR ME! They played The Prow & The Unknown Knows (video below!). The concert was INCREDIBLE, sadly very short, I don't know if this has to do with Chewy's pedal or not, but anyway they played the essentials! Ripping Headaches was a highlight for me! They guys seemed very pleased with the reaction of the crowd, 'cause chilean thrashers ARE WILD!!! HOPE TO SEE YOU AGAIN SOON!!!

What can I say? .... a couple coincidences and I ended up having the honour of working as Voivod's Roadie for their 2 chilean Gigs.


Dan used both my FX Pedalboard and Tube preamp, because his gear didn't arrive on time.

I also had to take them for an interview to a radio station ... funny considering I was not directly involved with the promoters... just had the willingness to help out my heroes while they were here on these distant lands.

Here are some pics taken by me (and that means: my pics suck )

Voivod at Radio Futuro:

Dan trying to make some money at Santiago's Main Square:

With Blacky, surely having some deep and important conversation:

Dan w/Hueso (my band's bassist who also roadied for VV in Santiago)... and some beverages at Oxido Bar

With the Vod's and some old school fan (Luchín) who brought his stuff to get it signed by the Boys:

Snake and KAZ, Voivod's sound-wizard /tour manager/ cool as hell guy (they sounded phenomenal both times)

and YES HARRY AND UFFE, IT HAPPENED :-) (Dan Playing in Santiago through the AIGORMAN -my custom pedalboard-) :

Doing soundcheck in Antofagasta according to KT's backcover pic caption (that is, Blacky is Away and Away is Blacky):

That's it guys and gals ... a weekend I'll never forget.

MERCI BEAUCOUP VOIVOD!!!!!!!!!!
