New guitarist in Würzburg.

Interesting. Any idea who?

Young woman. Very good.

A couple of grainy pics on Facebook appeared, some people on there saying they might be Kai from Esprit D'Air?

Yes, we have 4 sisters again. Andrew introduced the guitarist with „This is Cat“ or something similar (might be Kai. Looks Asian)
Great sound, great concert. Sorry, no photos, my phone did other important things. More later, now off to Stuttgart

Weird. He's a man, btw.

That brings some new elements to the Chris/Dylan saga. Some of us assumed the plan was having Chris back as a guitarist after this tour, so after whatever did happen with Dylan it'd have been easier to move him to the role right now, he only needed to learn the 7 or 8 new tracks they're playing. And he's doing basically nothing as a nurse anybody else could do with 5 minutes training. The fact they brought in an outsider who had to learn the complete set instead could be read as that wasn't the plan.

I stand corrected. Definitely very good.

The video on FB does look like Kai
And he and Ben are good friends and work together often

how exciting!

I never thought Chris was being eased back in.

But then I didn't foresee this either

I'm still hoping Dylan comes back after a break, surely that's the best outcome?

Indeed. From Wikipedia;

Shot Through The Heart
Between 2018 and 2019, Kai was a frequent guest vocalist for London-based project Shot Through The Heart, a "monthly night of live hard rock, AOR and glam metal covers" presented by Ben Christo. The live sets are usually enhanced with guest musicians from various rock/glam/metal groups, which included past guests from Bruce Dickinson (Iron Maiden), Rainbow, Michael Schenker, Gun, Marco Mendoza, Jettblack, Lauren Harris & more.


Looking forward to the Sisters covering "Wanted Dead or Alive"

Edited to say;

And of course Ben has recently played on Esprit D'Airs cover of Maidens "The Trooper" along with vocalist Tim Owens (of sometime Judas Priest fame.

Hands up everyone who thought there'd be a new guitarist in the band tonight.

Woa, that is so good to hear ... ... what a pleasure ... ...

And here's the first video from Ingo ... ... featuring But Genevieve and the introduction of Kai ... ...

The new fellow has a bit of a Tim Bricheno vibe.

beat me to it!

Ben's insta confirms Kai's on for the rest of the tour.

Hah, that's good to hear ... ...

Well done, Sisters ... ...

and welcome and all the best to Kai ... ...

Wow

Seems like we have to try to fit in another trip if the Berlin show is rescheduled. And hopefully this means they plan to keep it going beyond the current tour? Stop me before they fool me again!

Würzburg is just one of those totally un-hip places to have this happen.

But to be honest: I, at least, didn‘t expect it.
