After having finished the first leg of the most successful world tour the
band has played up to now, Edguy will enhance their tour and hit the stage of several festivals, plus an additional full single show in Saarbrücken on May 21st.
"We haven't played that area in ages and for some reason it didn't fit in
the routing and schedule of the regular tour, so we kind of stretch the tour out a little".

After Saarbrücken Edguy will also play the festivals listed below:

21.05.2009 GER - Saarbrücken - Garage
22.05.2009 GER - Rieden, Kreuth - Wacken Rocks
23.05.2009 GER - Aurich - Wacken Rocks
20.06.2009 GER - Dischingen - Festival am Härdtsfeldsee
27.06.2009 ITA - Milan, Brianteo Stadium Monza - Gods Of Metal
07.07.2009 SLO - Tolmin - Metalcamp
10.07.2009 CZE - Zlin - Masters of Rock Festival
11.07.2009 SWE - Kilafors - Rockweekend

"Edguy deliver a noise that is both: Gigantic and hilarious! (...) The whole thing is infectiously, irresistibly enjoyable that by the end no one in the audience would be suprised if Bill and Ted turned up to announce that world piece had been achieved via the glory of Flying Vs, powerchords, and the throwing of some seriously silly rock poses!" Kerrang Magazine Britain

“Hey people, I am sitting in a hotel room in Tokyo waiting for tonite’s show. Just been surfing a bit and found this one, pretty cool:

Saxon is a killer band, I remember I didn’t know the lyrics and Biff suggested just to improvise a little. The performance was explosive, and so was my appendix that had to be removed the next day in a hospital nearby. Saxon causes appendicitis! Cheeerzz, Tobi"

There was no vandalism on stage! The truth is that Tobias indeed was pissed off about the dysfunctional monitor system on stage and after trying to get it fixed finally threw the wedges into the photo pit. Nobody got hurt, nothing got damaged, except from the wedges that – due to the band had been already “damaged at that point”. Tobias explains: “I do not apologize as I did what everybody would have done, we are a Rock’n’Roll band, nobody got beaten up, nobody got hurt, I just threw a few fucking speakers around, that were crap anyway. I don’t know why people don’t stop to write shit about it, The Who wrecked whole venues, so who am I to ask for permission to remove some dysfunctional electronic garbage?”

On Saturday, June 27th Edguy will return to Italy to play the prestigious Gods Of Metal Festival. Edguy are looking forward to rocking their Italian audience once more, sharing the bill with bands such as Motley Crue, Heaven And Hell, Queensryche and many more.

Edguy have just been confirmed as this year’s headliner of the Czech Masters Of Rock Festival on the second weekend of July 2009. After the Prague show of the current “Tinnitus Sanctus World Tour” had been sold out weeks in advance, Edguy have been confirmed to return as one of the headliners of the legendary Masters Of Rock festival in Vicovice to celebrate Rock’n’Roll with 25.000 of their friends.
