MICHAEL SCHENKER – Cancels Tonight’s Show In Toronto

A statement from Michael Schenker reads as follows: “It is with great regret that we have had to cancel the show at Rockpile West on Wednesday night. Our singer Doogie White has been suffering with a chest infection for the last five shows and despite his finest efforts it has been decided to cancel this show to give him two days off from performing and offering a better chance for him to recover so the band can continue to give their very best at the shows for the remainder of the Spirit On A Mission USA tour. Hold on to your tickets as we are trying to get a redo date in May!! We will have an answer in 48 hrs.”

Doogie commented: “ I am very disappointed for the people who were looking forward to seeing Temple Of Rock in Toronto, I have happy memories of playing there last year. The last three shows have been a real struggle for me and rather than jeopardize the remainder of the tour we had to make this difficult decision.”

Michael Schenker’s upcoming tour schedule can be found on Facebook.

Spirit On A Mission, the album of all-new material, features Schenker’s Temple Of Rock band including ex-Scorpions Herman Rarebell (drums) and Francis Buchholz (bass), ex-Rainbow’s Doogie White (vocals) and Wayne Findlay (guitar, keyboards). The album will be released on CD, Deluxe Edition (CD+DVD), Deluxe 180 gram vinyl (special DMM-Cut), and digital download.

The album features 12 classic rock guitar-driven songs that highlight Schenker’s distinctive and dynamic guitar playing, valiantly underpinned by the ferocious rhythm section of Rarebell and Buchholz, the same rhythm section that originally performed together on the Scorpions’ 1979 album Lovedrive.
