SISTER will support U.D.O. – the band of former ACCEPT singer Udo Dirkschneider – at shows in Germany, Switzerland, Belgium and Holland. The bill will be completed by SISTER SIN.

U.D.O.

+ SISTER
24/11/11 – NL – Zwolle – Hedon
25/11/11 – DE – Pirmasens – Quasimodo
27/11/11 – DE – Berlin – C-Club
30/11/11 – BE – As – GC Drieschaar
01/12/11 – DE – Recklinghausen – Vest Arena
02/12/11 – DE – Burglengenfeld – VA Zentrum
03/12/11 – DE – Leipzig – Hellraiser

07/12/11 – CH – Pratteln – Z7
09/12/11 – DE – Balingen – Volksbankmesse
10/12/11 – DE – Memmingen – Stadthalle

Comments SISTER: “Udo and Accept has been a big influence for the members in Sister for a long time and to open for U.D.O. is fucking great for sure! We’re really looking forward to it all and this is one of many things that we wished for at this stage in our career. With the new album “HATED” out this summer the only thing we want to do is to hit the roads! Germany has been our “second home” the last years and has except for Sweden been the country we undoubtedly done most gigs. It´s always been a blast down there. This will of course be no exception and we will see all of you bastards when the time comes. We promise a riot on stage and thank U.D.O. and the organization around him for this opportunity! Cheers!”

About the band:
SISTER, who hails from Stockholm/Jönkoping Sweden, formed in early 2006 working hard to build up a name as a strong act both live and in the studio. SISTER consists of 4 members- Jamie on vocals, Lestat on guitars and backing vocals, Rikki on bass and backing vocals, and Cari on drums and backing vocals- who combine the sounds of Punk, Glam, Rock, and Metal with an end result sounding something like the bastard child of GG Allin and Guns N’ Roses.

SISTER’s Metal Blade debut HATED has been released the 3rd/6h of June, 2011!

Marco Hietala has issued the following statement:
TAROT has a great privilege and an opportunity to follow Saint Peter and his disciples in PAIN on their European tour through 5.10.-2.11. 2011. This is a last chance to see us promote the album “The Spell Of Iron MMXI”, and play live before I get active with NIGHTWISH again. We´re gonna be warming up for PAIN, and the first half of the tour we´re going to be joined with our home town boys from TURMION KÄTILÖT. So far we´re planning to change the opener of the shows every other night. So if you want to be sure to see TAROT perform, you should come early enough. Otherwise you are in danger of losing a seriously enjoyable ass whipping. With all the possible bad but nice intentions! Marco Hietala.
