Multi-national metal machine DRAGONFORCE have announced, via their Official Facebook Page, the drum clinic of their drummer Gee Anzalone:
In collaboration with Mapex Italy and Casale Bauer, DRAGONFORCE drummer Gee Anzalone is happy to announce his drum clinic date, set to take place on May 27h at the “Città della Musica” in Via Pietro Nenni, 105, San Giovanni Teatino (Chieti-Italy). Do not miss it!
Australian 10 year-old heavy metal kid, Callum McPhie, performed DRAGONFORCE‘s song “Through The Fire And Flames” at the grand final of the talent show “Australia’s Got Talent”. Anyhow, he was voted off the final episode of the show on Monday night. Watch the video below.

The 10-year-old performed “Through the Fire and Flames” by DRAGONFORCE on a stage emblazoned by real flames in the grand final on Sunday night to high praise from the judges. But he failed to attract enough votes to make it through to the top five and stay in the running to take home the $250,000 first prize on Monday’s “decider”.
Many of the pint-sized rock star’s fans felt he had been robbed, judging by the reaction on social media, expressing their disbelief over the extent of his talent at a young age.
But several said they expected to see the “little legend” popping up again.
The fast-tracked 10-year-old high school student could now turn his attention to stardom of a different kind, after previously telling Fairfax Media he wanted to be an astrophysicist as well as a musician.
Hosted by Jeff Waters of Annihilator, the official 70000 Tons Of Metal All Star Jam took place on board The World’s Biggest Heavy Metal Cruise last weekend, reports Bravewords.com.
Featuring members of Hammerfall, Delain, Turisas, Firewind, Gamma Ray, Lacuna Coil, Children Of Bodom, Moonspell, Jag Panzer, Krisiun, Vader, Raven, Dragonforce, Vader, Visions Of Atlantis, and more, a series of videos from the All Star Jam can be seen below:

Multi-national, high-speed non-stop metal machine DRAGONFORCE are supporting the cause of highlighting the problem of an ever decreasing number of live music venues in the UK that support rock & metal. The band will play a special one off show on Saturday 22nd August at The Square, Harlow in Essex, which sadly is soon to close but is hosting a series of shows under the banner ‘Back To Square One’, by high profile artistes that previously played the venue in their developing years. Days after this show the band are setting off for South East Asia to continue their Maximum Overload World Tour with shows in Thailand, Hong Kong, Taiwan, 3 shows in China and 5 shows in Japan.
Guitarist Herman Li said ”As a touring band DragonForce cut it’s teeth by playing an array of pubs and small clubs up and down the country which are vital for bands to gain live experience. We are now seeing venues disappear and it’s becoming quite alarming. The Peel in Kingston, The Empress in Bradford, The LA2/Mean Fiddler in London, we played all of these in the distant past but they have all gone, and now The Square in Harlow, which we first played 14 years ago, is about to join them later this year. It’s really very sad but more to the point, it will affect the development of new metal talent in the UK. The promoter asked if we would do a farewell to The Square show and we’re happy to do it to help illuminate this growing problem”.
