We cannot express how excited we are to finally be able to announce these dates as it has been a long time coming. See you all soon on the West coast leg of the Theories Of Flight tour 2018!”
As previously announced, all of the European shows will be recorded for an upcoming live release, which makes the dates very special, as the band also commented:
“It’s been 20 years since we released our only live album, “Still Life”. It’s time for an update! In January we’ll be recording a series of shows in some of our favorite European cities. The best of these will be included in a live album to be released in 2018. While we haven’t decided on the final set list yet we’re planning on about a 2 hour set with as little overlap as possible with the “Still Life album”. Hope to see you all there!” – Jim Matheos / FATES WARNING
