Shocker!! Mustasch guitarist leaves band

Just read in the Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet that Hannes Hansson is leaving Mustasch after 10 years in the band. Replacement has not been announced yet.

OH FOR FUCK'S SAKE!!!

Glenn, if you gotta bail on these guys.... NUKE. That's all I'm saying.

I'm sure they can get a new guitarist quick enough

OH CRAP!!!!! here we go again

I wish these things would happen BEFORE I interview the band.

Now I have to get hold of Ralf again to see what's up.

crap!

It sucks but I doubt this will effect whether or not they show up at PP. Their immediate concern is they'll need a replacement for all the booked summer fests in July and August.

The heavy metal, revolving door is greased up for operation.

they'll break up after Progpower, remember?

I contacted Ralf and will be speaking to him again next Tuesday. I'll ask about Hannes' departure. One I transcribe our brief follow-up interview, I'll post it. The main interview with Ralf was amazing. So this latest bit of news will make it an even more fascinating read for y'all.
