Cannibal Corpse have released the following statement regarding their recent cancellation of their appearance at Wacken Open Air 2006

"We regret to announce that we have to cancel our appearance at the Wacken Open Air in 2006. The cancellation is due to a scheduling conflict with a large tour in the USA that we will be appearing on. We have now been told that the USA tour (more details on this tour will be released on February 15th) will run from July 7th to August 13th, where originally we had been told that it would likely run from June until July. We would not have scheduled a Wacken performance if we had been aware of this conflict."

"We were really looking forward to playing Wacken, so we are quite disappointed that this has to happen, but we did not want to cancel a month long tour to perform a single concert. We are very sorry to all of our fans who were planning to see us at Wacken, and also to the festival organizers, who are in no way responsible for our cancellation. We hope to perform at Wacken again in the years to come, but unfortunately this year it is not possible."

What's Next?

Those dates are almost too short for Ozzfest, aren't they? Sounds almost like Gigantour dates, doesn't it?

The perfect thing to do now is to get a replacement being an all star band doing a tribute to Death, That would be alot better than a bunch of grown men roaring about blood and guts and all that crap.

hey, symbolic, f*** you! death may be one hell of a f***ing band but show respect for the guys who were in ace ventura and have consitantly put out great sh** and didn't invent death metal but they kind of put it on the map (seeing as bob dole spoke out against them specifically)... cannibal corpse is one good band and although death was too; they aren't making music anymore (RIP CHUCK) and CC is
