MAR 09: Unfortunately Chris is still very ill and no more shows will be booked until he has made a full recovery. Sincere apologies to promoters and bands that were involved in the upcoming tours this year, it is completely beyond the bands control.

JAN 09: ALL SHOWS CANCELLED - More disheartineing news: Unfortunately, due to a persistent back problem that affects drummer Chris which has been made more serious by recent events, it is with deep regret that Honey for Christ have to cancel their upcoming shows in Cork and Limerick.

Chris has been on Morphine tablets for over a week now and faces a lay off of at least 6 weeks before he is able to even think about playing drums again. The band wish to offer their sincere apologies to anyone who was looking forward to seeing them, and we are working towards re-scheduling the dates once Chris had made a full recovery.

HFC would also like to extend gratitude to Lee for his patience and understanding over this, and our apologies for having to cancel at such short notice. We hope that Chris makes a speedy recovery, and will be back playing with the band again soon!

JAN 09: Unfortunately our first news of 2009 isn't so postive. The HFC show in Keady 10.01.09 has had to be cancelled.

We wish him a speedy receovery and HFC hope to be back on the road soon. We'll get another date reschduled later in the year. Sincere apologies again. HFC

NOV 08: Honey For Christ are pleased to announce a successful mini tour of Europe, there were a few problems along the way, obviously, but nothing we couldn't take in our very heavy metal stride! Despite occurences of extreme influenza, mosquitos, and some customs problems Honey For Christ had 3 fantastic shows in Belgium, Germany and The Netherlands with touring brothers THE PROPHECY and new f(r)iends NEVER COMES SILENCE.

A massive thanks to THE PROPHECY for supplying the entire backline at all shows - we are always in your debt! It was a sin that the band were unable to perform in Sans Van Gent due to Greg's enrourmous hands from a terrible reaction to being bitten. We were gutted, a massive respect for staying all day despite being unable to play. We hope Greg's ok

HFC

Cheers to NEVER COMES SILENCE for the great fun had in Datteln and for treating us so well, namely the endless supply of beer, pizza bread and nuts! Also for giving us a place to stay. Special hails to Fabian - the metal legend!

There are some photos up on the myspace already with more to come, keep watching!

Cheers to everyone that came to the shows and especially Emilio for arranging the gigs and looking after us so well, as always - hope you enjoy the vinyl!

Keep it metal
