GAMA BOMB ANNOUNCES HEADLINING EUROPEAN TOUR, STAND-IN GUITARIST

Irish thrashers GAMA BOMB have confirmed a headlining European tour for September, before the band heads to North America in October for a two-month trek with the likes of OVERKILL, FORBIDDEN, DRI, EVILE and BONDED BY BLOOD.

GAMA BOMB will kick off the "Graveyard Disturbance" tour on September 16th in Nijmegen, Netherlands, with support for the tour coming from Danish metal award winners CROCELL.

GAMA BOMB bassist JOE McGUIGAN comments:

"We're seriously looking forward to the GRAVEYARD DISTURBANCE TOUR: it's been a while since we kicked over some tombstones in Europe.  We'll be touring in a slightly different incarnation, though, as our lead guitar player Domo 'The Kid' Dixon will be sitting out touring for the rest of 2010 to concentrate on personal stuff.

"Our pal and original guitbox player Kevy Canavan, who played on our first album, Survival of the Fastest, will be filling in for Domo on our European and US tours this year.  As we're revving up for a major US tour later this year, these will be our final European dates until some point in 2011, we're not sure when.

"So get your ass to Mars (i.e. the graveyard (i.e. your local smelly club (that we're playing in))) and help us chug some beers!"
