FIREFEST 4 RUNNING TIMES
Doors : 12.15
Jaded Heart 12.35- 1.15
Crunch :1.40-2.30
Valentine : 2.50 - 3.50
Jorn : 4.15 - 5.15
Harem Scarem : 5.40 - 6.50
Tyketto : 7.15 - 8.30
F.M. : 9.00 - 10.25
10.30 FINISH
With exactly 4 weeks to go to Firefest , tickets have been selling extremely well and there are now 294 TICKETS ONLY REMAINING for the Saturday performance featuring Harem Scarem playing their last show EVER, and Tyketto’s farewell appearance on English soil.
Of course there is also the small matter of F.M.’s first live performance in over twelve years…something that no self respecting fan wants to miss. As the boys have said, there are NO future plans for any further F.M. shows, so this looks as if it could be the one and only…
Following Harem Scarem’s withdrawal from the Melodicrock Fest in South Bend, the FIREFEST performance will be their LAST anywhere in the world. Bearing that in mind, Harry and Pete have promised a set list that every HS will absolutely love.
Tyketto have been rehearsing hard in New Jersey. Brooke St James checked in to say everything was going to plan and they are delighted the way things are progressing. There is also some EXTREMELY exiting news for Tyketto fans, and we’ll update you as soon as we can. This is certainly an unexpected turn of events , but seeing as it’s the farewell tour , the boys thought this would be something worth doing…and believe me it is. The set list has been nailed down and you can expect to hear all the old favourites as well as a few surprises that you may not expect. I have to say the band have really gone the extra mile to make this tour something to remember!
Firefest day one has also been selling really well, with over 50% of all tickets sold so far. In between ProgPower USA and Prog Power Scandanavia, we are delighted that Threshold have agreed to play FF.
The reviews of the European tour so far means their performance at Firefest is a MUST SEE. Touring in support of one of the finest albums of 2007, Dead Reckoning has raised the bands profile to an entirely new level, not to mention the live show which is stunning!
FIREFEST 4 official t shirts will be on sale from www.thefirefest.com very shortly, as well as the FIREFEST 4 official programme, all of which can be ordered in advance of the show. So if you don’t fancy carrying a t shirt around with you all day, drop by the web site and grab your shirt in advance. T-shirts will hopefully be on sale by Monday Oct 7th, so be sure to grab one, because same as last year, there is only a limited number (100) shirts available Once they are gone, that’s it.
Some of the Firefest crew have flown out to the UFOR show in Germany to lend their support, and more of the crew are flying out to the USA next week to the Melodic Rock Fest in South Bend , Indiana for a great weekend of rock and roll. It will be nice to hook up with Jamie Rowe of Crunch, a South Bend native, as well as Crunch guitarist Vic Rivera and keyboardist Eric Ragno who will both also be playing at Firefest , Vic with Crunch and Eric with the Steve Grimmett band. Not to mention of course John Parker from Talon, a long time friend and a decent drummer too!
With SO MANY shows being cancelled recently , we would like to take this opportunity to thank everybody for their support thus far . We appreciate it more than you will ever know.Wouldn’t it be nice, just for once, to buck the trend and have the HOUSE FULL sings up outside Rock City???…remember this is YOUR show. We thank YOU for the opportunity to put together a great weekend of MELODIC HARD ROCK…we may be down , but we are definitely NOT OUT!!!!!!
