NASUM: POST FAREWELL TOUR UPDATE

Swedish grind legends NASUM have posted an update on the bands farewell tour. NASUM split up after the death of vocalist/guitarist  Mieszko Talarczyk in the 2004 Tsunami while on vacation in Thailand. NASUM are currently on a world tour, touring the USA with BRUTAL TRUTH. 






FROM NASUM: The first show on the Farewell tour is done and believe me when I say that it's a relief to have it done. Going from the safety of the rehearsal room to a stage where everything sounds different and the environment is not familiar is always a huge step, and particularly in an enormous project like this. Some tension and nervousness were present, but now it's done and it feels great.

For us it was the first time we worked with our all Finnish crew - a tour manager, a sound engineer and a monitor/lights guy - and it all went fine. We have employed three very professional and nice people that will make things a lot easier for us during this summer and fall. 

The show was fine. Some minor dents and mistakes, but most of them were only obvious to us. The response was great and from all the kind words we've heard since the show, we apparently did good.
