UFO tour bassist (Euro and USA 2008, USA 2009), Rob De Luca has released an update

Hello all, it's been a busy season: The UFO fall US tour was a blast. What an incredible band! It was cool to see a bunch of familiar faces from 2008, and many new ones. Much thanks to METALLICA and BUMBLEFOOT for comin' out to watch. Extra special thanks to all the fans, you're intense dedication is so appreciated. After that, UFO headed over to Europe which completely kicked ass!! I was psyched to see Basel, Switzerland, where I'd never been. (Shout out to VINNIE MOORE who's in Europe now with his solo tour- go see it!) The same day UFO finished, I flew to Finland to meet up with the SEBASTIAN BACH BAND. Our first show (on no rehearsal!) was direct support for the legendary ALICE COOPER at the Esport Arena in Helsinki. Alice and band were so friendly to us and of course their show was amazing. Thanks also to MICHAEL MONROE for joining us onstage in Turku, Finland for "Taxi Driver". We then ravaged our way across Europe. I was happy to make it to Budapest, where I'd never been. Such warm people, and of course back to Italia!!! By the time we got to Rome the BACH band was absolutely on fire! We were home for the holidays barely long enough to pet the cat, then back out on the road. This time as direct support for GUNS N' ROSES across Canada. I can not express how cool AXL and the gang were to us, including their crew. It's such a huge privilege to play sold out arenas and I think the fans really appreciated having two of the absolute best hard rock frontmen on one stage. I surely did!!! The GN'R show is a definite "must see" and the afterparties were almost as wild as the shows. DANKO JONES was the opener and is also a really good rock band of supercool people. Thank you again so much Canada!! SEBASTIAN played a few packed out headline shows on the way home and now the CHINESE DEMOCRACY/ANGEL DOWN WORLD TOUR rolls on to South America, so look out for us..... I also wanted to mention that LOVEMBER RECORDS has just released the debut album from my band OF EARTH and made it available FREE for anyone and everyone at http://OfEarth.bandcamp.com It was co-engineered by Grammy winner Tom Camuso and I think it turned out really good. See you out there, somewhere... Rob De Luca. GUNS N' ROSES/SEBASTIAN BACH dates: 3/7/10 - Brasilia, Brazil @ Ginasio Nilson Nelson Arena 3/10/10 - Belo Horizonte, Brazil @ Mineirinho Arena 3/13/10 - Sao Paulo, Brazil @ Palestra Italia Stadium 3/14/10 - Rio de Janeiro, Brazil @ Apoteose Stadium 3/16/10 - Porto Alegre, Brazil @ Ginasio Gigantinho Arena 3/18/10 - Montevideo, Uruguay @ Centenario Stadium 3/20/10 - Buenos Aires, Argentina @ River Plate Stadium 3/22/10 - Santiago, Chile @ Estadio Hipico 3/25/10 - Lima, Peru @ Monumental Stadium Esplanade Thanks, R.A.D. http://www.myspace.com/RobertDeLuca FREE "OF EARTH" ALBUM DOWNLOAD at: http://OfEarth.bandcamp.com

UFO Related Kevin Alba from MetalAsylum.net has submitted the following report: HAIL!, the all-star band featuring bassist David Ellefson (ex-MEGADETH), guitarist Andreas Kisser (SEPULTURA), vocalist Tim "Ripper" Owens (YNGWIE MALMSTEEN, ex-JUDAS PRIEST, ICED EARTH) and newly appointed chameleon drummer Mike Portnoy (DREAM THEATER), played its first U.S. show last night (Tuesday, January 26) at B.B. King Blues Club & Grill in New York City. As a special treat for New York, SAVATAGE/TRANS-SIBERIAN ORCHESTRA guitarist Chris Caffery joined the guys on smoking renditions of "Lights Out" by UFO (which Ripper said the band learned just for Eddie Trunk who presented the band tonight because UFO is his favorite band)

Two Concert Review's

Concert Review: UFO w/ Freakswitch, Starstruck, Adam's Echo (8th October 2009, Poughkeepsie, NY)

 

10th October - BB Kings - New York - NY

UFO were good at BBs Saturday night. So hard when a band has 40 years of music to play and so much you want to hear. The set was pretty much all the Schenker classics, a couple new tunes, and one Chapman tune (Mystery Train). Phil Mogg is a true freak. He looked and sounded great. Of course I miss Pete Way but Rob Deluca did a great job filling in. Sound could have been better, but the music is so great it cuts through just about any issue. Still some of the most timeless classy hard rock ever! Hope to catch another show before they leave the USA. Every title from Phenomenon through Misdemeanor is now remastered in new expanded editions on EMI/UK. They are awesome.

Finally, various posters and outside venue shots added to the USA Tour page
