Der Bassist von Steel Shock hat die Band verlassen. Das nenne ich mal ein ehrliches Statement. Gefällt mir.
Hailz Shockers & Steelers,
Today we have some sad news. Our bass player Marcel Aerodyne has decided to leave Steel Shock! We are sad to see him leave, but we also respect his decision and motivation. We go our seperate ways in mutual respect, love and understanding and wish Aerodye all the best in the future!
Here is what Marcel has to say:
"Hailz Shockers & Steelers
For 4,5 years I’ve been a part of Steel Shock with outmost joy and drive. But now this era ends. It is with a heavy heart that I have decided to quit my duties as the bass player for Steel Shock.
The current rules and regulations regarding COVID-19 have been the reason for my decision. As some countries have decided to (temporarily?) put an end to the COVID-restrictions, other countries are still enforcing those laws. Among other things, the obligations to be fully vaccinated and “2G” measures that some handle, sees to a divided community and excludes those that do not cooperate. And I do believe that these laws and regulations will be introduced again in the future and that they will be enforced even more heavily. I do not want to be a part of this. I do not want to be one that contributes to laws and regulation that excludes people. It’s all or nothing for me.
It has been an exciting and eventful 4,5 years, and I wouldn’t trade it for the world. Together we have faced lots of high and lows, like a family. We have met a lot of new people and have had lots of great shows and cool festival appearances. We have made friends with lots of great bands. During the years we saw many familiar faces return to the shows and always had an amazing audience. We spent many hours together on the tour bus, ate tons of “Frinkandellen-taart” (thanks again, Claudia!), drank gallons of Jack Daniel’s and always had a great time together. Nicole always took care of the merchandise as well and as professional as one could wish for and of course the hospitality and the sleepovers at Lijon and Johanna’s place… Steel Shock is not only a band and I will miss all of this dearly.
I would like to thank Erik, Lijon and Nima for the fantastic time I was able to spend with them. It’s been an amazing adventure and needless to say that I this adventure will continue for them for a long, long time!
Cheers,
Marcel Aerodyne"
