Das der allseits beliebte Joey Demayonaise schon für den ein oder anderen Aussetzer zuständig ist, sollte den meisten Lesern bekannt sein. Was er aber nun wieder verbrochen hat, wird wohl erst die Zukunft zeigen - zumindest sah sich die Band Rhapsody of Fire genötigt, folgendes Statement zu veröffentlichen:
"First of all, thank you for all the patience you had in these last times despite the lack of news regarding the band.
"We wanted to inform you that we are in the middle of a hard legal fight with MCM [MANOWAR's Magic Circle Music] and [the company's] main representative Mr. Joey De Maio [MANOWAR bassist/leader]. That's the reason why in the last months we had to keep all strictly confidential and could not release any official declaration that could obviously be used against us from the opposite side. And that's also the reason why we were constricted to stop completely our band's activity. Frankly, we are not able to imagine if all this can end in a very close future, but we want to assure you that we are ready to fight with all the strength of body and soul in order to protect yours and our beloved band. Yes, aside from these bad events, we ask you to not lose your faith in us. As soon as this sad situation will be solved, we'll be ready for a great and mighty come back. A new album, a real masterpiece of speed/epic metal, is already composed and ready to be recorded and after its release an immense worldwide tour will finally follow for yours and our extreme satisfaction."
Ein weiteres Kapitel in der Seifenoper "Joey De Maio gegen den Rest der Welt" scheint also gerade wieder geschrieben, wir harren der Dinge die da kommen.
