Flyer

Dear all of my friends & colleagues



i'm terribly sorry and very sad to tell you this, but i must cancel this ZENI GEVA tour.

My mother was suddenly hit by a brain haemorrhage at the night of April 3rd and she is still in a hospital getting intensive care at ICU.

Fortunately she escaped death, however the situation doesn't allow me to leave for Europe at all.

Of course, this is totally unexpected and very very shocking to me and my family. I am her only son, I am the only one who can look after her and take responsibility for all of her life.

Mother is not just a one of a family members, you know. at this moment it's absolutely impossible for me to leave my mother behind and go to Europe for 1 month. at this moment I cannot think of anything but taking care of my mother and wishing her recovery.

I must stay here and look after my Mom.

I want all of you to know that I was really looking forward to this tour and really excited and ready to "rock" with very strong & high motivation.

I’ve never thought if I would cancel the show at all. but in this situation here now, I have no choice. I hope you understand.

i greatly appreciate all of your effort, energy & time you have been

spending to organize everything for the show, and I’m terribly sorry for any

& all inconveniences and troubles may be caused by this cancellation.



please accept my sincere apology from the bottom of my heart.

I’m sorry again and thank you very much for your understanding & support.

sincerely regards



Kazuyuki (KK NULL) of ZENI GEVA

Zeni Geva
ZENI GEVA is a Japanese prog-hardcore band, led by singer and guitarist KK Null, one pioneering group of innovators and legends.   ZENI GEVA was founded in Tokyo in 1987 and quickly found a dedicated fan base in Europe and the US. Their popularity in the west enabled ZENI GEVA to be one of the first Japanese bands to tour in Europe and the US with bands like Bastro, Crash Worship, Dazzling Killmen, Don Caballero, Eyehategod, Melvins, Neurosis, Pain Teens, Shellac and more.   Steve Albini rates ZENI GEVA as one of his favorite bands. He highlights the band's wide range of influences for keeping the ZENI GEVA sound diverse and challenging. Steve also admires the way ZENI GEVA embrace the Japanese culture in their sound rather than trying to Westernize it.   Subsequent tours have comprehensively covered Europe, the US, Canada, New Zealand and Australia, proving a fast emerging worldwide audience.   ZENI GEVA has released 12 albums (5 out of them produced by Steve Albini) on Jello Biafra's Alternative Tentacles, Null's self label NUX Organization, Skin Graft, Neurosis' Neurot Recordings and more. Also ZENI GEVA recorded twice for John Peel Session on BBC.   In 2009 the 2nd original drummer Tatsuya Yoshida (Ruins) who had been playing in the band in 1989-90 and recorded the 1st CD "Maximum Money Monster", came back and brought the band with more complexity and hyper energy.
Tumido
Tumido, a duo consisting of drums and bass/guitar has envolved from years of cooperation between Bernhard Breuer und Gigi Gratt. <br><br> Their cosmos of sound gives space to everything serving the moment. Technoid sounds meet punk, melancholy goes hand in hand with roughness, and progressive grooves hit impro on their rodeo through your soul. <br><br> They base their musical concept on constant grooves, creating powerful walls, which are gradually growing and expanding. <br><br> colaborations with: kknull, bulbul, alex jöchtl, stefan rois, martin zrost, wolf lobo eisberg, hannes löschl, manfred hofer also playing live as: tumido/bulbul tumido&stefan rois <br><br>
