Soilworkin rumpali Dirk Verbeuren tuuraa Chris Adleria tulevilla Megadethin keikoilla

Ruotsalaisesta metalli-yhtye Soilworkista tuttu rumpali Dirk Verbeuren on valittu Chris Adlerin tuuraajaksi Megadethin riveihin Adlerin hoitaessa velvollisuuksiaan toisen yhtyeensä Lamb Of Godin kanssa. Chris on kertonut tuoreessa BangerTV:n haastattelussa itse suositelleensa Dirk Verbeurenia pestiin sillä pitää tätä yhtenä maailman parhaista rumpaleista. Voit lukea Adlerin tarinan kuinka Dirk päätyi Megadethin riveihin hänen tuuraajaksi tästä:

”MEGADETH is on tour now doing a couple of festivals — same festivals that LAMB OF GOD is,” he said. ”We tried as much as we could with all the promoters and all the festivals to have us coincide and play on the same day. I’ve done double duty with LAMB and MEGADETH across the U.K. and just done five shows with them along this tour that we’re currently on right now, because we were able to collide and make those things happen. As we go in different reactions and play different things, MEGADETH has a drummer to be able to play those shows. Dave [Mustaine, MEGADETH mainman] would certainly prefer to have me there, and I love playing with those guys and I would love to be there, but obviously I cannot be in two places at once.”

”Dave asked me… He said, ’As we’re doing this, and if you’re not able to be there… I understand you wanna fulfill your commitment with LAMB OF GOD. And we’re planning on going over to Europe while LAMB OF GOD is still touring. Help me find… Who would you want to drum for us?’ And I said, ’First of all, the drum tech you currently have, Tony, who was the drummer for DIMMU BORGIR and ANGELCORPSE, [he’s an] amazing drummer, so you have someone on staff that can easily do this.’ But then he asked, ’Well, if there was someone out there that you would personally recommend, personality-wise and playing-wise?’ And [Dirk] just began the job today.”
