I have financial issues at home that have to be addressed sooner than later. I hope you all can understand and respect my decision. It\u2019s been some of the best years of my life and I appreciate all the support you the fans have given us and continue to give. I will forever be part of the WARBRINGER family. Many thanks and until I see the rest of you again, keep the metal alive. Cheers!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The band enlisted friend and talented, young guitarist Andrew Bennett for the purpose of filling in live for this tour with the hope that he may become a permanent member of the group as he continues his audition process where it matters most\u2013 on the stage and in the van.<\/p>\n<p>Comments Andrew Bennett, \u201cLast month I received a message from the guys, which basically stated that Adam was requesting to step out. As a result, they were searching for a possible replacement who could learn the material in time for the upcoming ICED EARTH and SYMPHONY X tour.  I jumped at the opportunity and started learning some tracks. Around the beginning of this month I went down and jammed with the guys and the rest is history. I am eternally grateful to my friends in WARBRINGER for giving me the opportunity to play with them and I am very excited about what the future may hold. But, one thing that I would like to make clear is that I don\u2019t view myself as Adam\u2019s replacement, as much as I view myself as filling the position instead of him. Adam\u2019s work with the band and time with them is not something that can be erased and I would just like to make it clear that I respect him greatly. He has left big shoes to fill and I have a lot of work ahead of me if I am going to honor his legacy with the band. I\u2019m looking forward to interacting with, and playing for the fans on the road! It\u2019s time to shred!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Check out WARBRINGER live on the shows below.<\/p>\n<p>WARBRINGER tour dates feat.
