"Sad news in Cata-camp. Veikko has decided to departure from Catamenia cos of his personal reasons. Now we're looking for a new drummer with skills to play blastbeats and double basses, but also to be crazy as our clips Cataventures show. If you think you're the one, please send email to applications@catamenia.net".

Taken from the official Catamenia newsletter:

"We are really sorry to inform about this cos we were looking forward for these gigs, but here are few reasons for the cancellations:

- The flight tickets of the band haven't been booked although
the gigs were so close.
- The local promotion company hadn't solved the Venue problems
and tickets.
- Lack of coordination abilities.
- They didn't send any agreements regarding the gigs."

The regarding dates were on 17 March at Ankara, and 18 March at Istanbul.

Token from the Catamenia newsletter:

"To prevent the annoying speculations of how things went in European Tour and why Tero is not anymore in the band, we decided to make an official statement regarding the situation.

When finishing the Russian Tour, Tero informed at the train station of St. Petersburg he won't continue to the European Tour with us, but he'll go back to Moscow. We do not know the exact reason for this, but we have seen how things turned out - he simply followed our Russian promoter there. Thank you for these years and good luck in the future, Tero.

European Tour - Managers from ProMusic Productions/Romania were totally rip-offs and did not care about bands at all from the start.
They broke every paragraph in the contract, but still we continued the tour for the sake of the fans and local promoters. Managers did not provide us decent breakfasts, meals and not even water. We had to sleep in a really small bus, one night spent in parking lot in Switzerland when waiting another bus to come cause the previous one broke down near Milan. After the last show we went to Budapest where there should have been hotel provided from 24th to 27th of October as agreed, but guess what - NO! They just left us there, broke the promise and contract so we had to pay everything ourselves.

Thank you really much fans, local promoters and Winterhorde. You kept us going on and you're the reason why we did not cancel the tour! Fuck off Nelu and Dana from ProMusic Prod!"
