Amelia, Ohio. Warriors of Metal, Inc. is disappointed to announce that
the Oklahoma City Speed Metal band, Forte' has been forced to cancel
their appearance at this year's Warriors Of Metal Fest V Open Air on
June 30th. In an e-mail message to the organizers on June 4th, drummer
and band leader, Greg Scott stated the following:
"One week ago, my brother
guitarist Jeff Scott , severely injured his right knee (acl) in a work
related accident,we tried to rehearse yesterday,but it clearly is more
serious than we thought ,so after seeing a specialist this morning, we
regret as a band that we have to cancel all live shows planned for the
near future,we appreciate all the hard work you and your organization
have done,we hope the festival is a great success,this is a huge blow
to the band,as we have a new album out june 12,hopefully with time the
knee can be rehabilitated,as there is no band without Jeff ,best of
luck to all involved,we hope to return next year....Greg Scott"
We, at Warriors of Metal, Inc.
hope for a speedy recovery for Jeff Scott and the opportunity to
showcase Forte' at a later date. But for this year the festival lineup
has been readjusted by the addition of the Rhode Island Heavy Metal
band, Enchanter, signed to Germany's Pure Steel Records, which has been
on our waiting list for 1.5 years. We look forward to hosting
Enchanter and stand witness to all the cool new materials they have
been working on lately.

but June 28th is the last day for the purchase of discounted advanced
