We have invited DAVID TIBET to curate a special long-day-event as part of the 13th annual Roadburn Festival, which will take place Sunday, April 20, 2008, at the 013 Club in Tilburg, The Netherlands. CURRENT 93 will be performing as well as other special guests: David Tibet comments: "I am proud and delighted to confirm that I have been invited by the wonderful Roadburn Festival in Tilburg, Holland to curate a special day-long event. Current 93 will be performing, as well as some special guests that I have invited to accompany us. I can confirm that the majestic OM & BABY DEE will be appearing, and that I am presently discussing the appearance of 2 or 3 more of my favourite artists. Roadburn is perhaps the pre-eminent festival of doom, stoner, psychedelacidic and othercoloured metal, and I am very touched and happy to have been invited by Roadburn to bring some of those artists whom I love to a festival whose work I have long admired."The Glasspack will be headlining the 2008 Roadburn Festival Afterburner in the Green Room on Sunday April 20, 2008. This is a one-off first time ever gig in Europe just for Roadburn and its fans of the GlasspackSan Francisco's heavy 70's outfit Djzenghis Khan have also been confirmed for the Roadburn Afterburner, alongside Graveyard, SourVein, Beehoover & Repomen.David Tibet's day-long event and the Roadburn Afterburner are two different events. The 013 venue will be divided into two different venues -- the main hall for David's event, and the Green Room & Bat Cave for the Afterburner.

Due the clossed corridors at the 013 venue, both events can be held separately without any distraction to each other.We're also pleased to report that the Roadburn Pre- Heat on Thursday, April 17th, 2008 is shaping up nicely: we're going to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Lee Dorrian's Rise Above Records --it's going to be the first show in a series of anniversary events throughout 2008. On the bill are GRAND MAGUS, CAPRICORNS, TAINT & LITMUS. Lee Dorrian comments: "As Rise Above Records approaches it's 20th year in the 'business', it's with great pleasure that I can announce the appearance of the aforementioned band, plus more TBA on our special Roadburn anniversary evening [Thurday, April 17, 2008]. It's going to be a great way to start this great heavy festival – see you down the front." More info about this special event will follow.
