Robert Devine, CEO of the Maximus Entertainment
booking agency (which handles such artists as
TESTAMENT, NUCLEAR ASSAULT and DESTRUCTION), has
released a statement to BLABBERMOUTH.NET accusing the
Thunderdome Booking Agency of "attempted fraud" in
connection with the upcoming Metal Crusaders Tour
(which is currently being advertised as featuring
headliners VADER alongside KATAKLYSM, DESTRUCTION,
SPEED\KILL/HATE, GRAVEWORM and THE ABSENCE). His
statement reads as follows:
"To all of the fans, promoters and venues involved
with the Metal Crusaders Tour, this statement is fact
and involves a class action lawsuit against the
Thunderdome Booking Agency.
"There is no truth in the statements made about
NUCLEAR ASSAULT [referring to an earlier press release
announcing that NUCLEAR ASSAULT were pulling out of
the Metal Crusaders Tour 'due to an urgent immediate
family situation of one of its band members.' — Ed.]
Everyone in the band is in perfect health and ready to
tour the world in 2006. The Thunderdome Booking Agency
has given false information regarding the Metal
Crusaders Tour to try to profit and steal commissions
and take advantage of every act involved in this tour.
"Maximus Entertainment has never received one offer
from any date solicited or contracted through the
Thunderdome Booking Agency. We have no knowledge of
any dates concerning NUCLEAR ASSAULT, SPEED\KILL/HATE,
DESTRUCTION or any other act represented by Maximus
Entertainment.
"If you were contacted by any other agent except Tammy
Taylor [of Maximus Entertainment] regarding any of the
acts involved with the Metal Crusaders Tour, we have
no information and you have been misinformed by the
Thunderdome Booking Agency. Please feel free to
contact Maximus Entertainment or the law office of
Joseph Turner (512-474-4892) concerning the class
action lawsuit and the attempted fraud by the
Thunderdome Booking Agency."
