Garm má zdravotné problémy a ruší svoju účasť na plánovaných koncertoch s ÆTHENOR. Vo svojom stanovisku síce hovorí len o talianskych zastávkach, odrieknutie sa však pravdepodobne týka aj tej pražskej (7. december - Chapeau Rouge) a viedenskej (8. december - Arena).

"A while back I suffered a disc prolapse in my back, and although I thought it would be in order by now, it"s worse than ever, travelling around my body like a cancer. I"ve quite possibly got an inflammation (still waiting for bloodwork). Some days is an athletic triumph just getting out of bed. Pain is chronic. And physical to boot.

So. It is with much regret that I have decided to send the Æthenor boys out as a trio on the forthcoming Italian dates. I am very sorry to have to do this, but I need a respite to ride this one out. As you can see from my Facebook pictures, my main function in Æ is really that of poster boy, so I am not particularly worried, apart from the possibility that they might find out they"re actually better off without me ;-)

Please go get other-worlded by Noble/O"Sullivan/O"Malley trio, ok? And if the new album is there... Well, we are really proud of it, and I"m eager to see the vinyl. I will be back in shape next year. And I will be in place with Ulver in Warsaw on the 18th, as it is a one-off, and possibly with a cane. How"s that for aging in style?"
