| Monday, September 12, 2005 - Lead singer Michael Bøgballe leaves Mnemic, replacement announced. | The energetic Michael Bøgballe has chosen to leave Mnemic, and he has released this statement:
"It is with great sadness that I must announce my departure from MNEMIC. From today I'm no longer officially the singer of MNEMIC. There's a thousand ways to put this but none seem just accurate right now, so I'm just gonna be honest with ya all. There are two main reasons in my life for doing this. One is that mý girlfriend is pregnant with my baby and I therefore want to spend some more time at home. Second is that I'm sick and tired of being broke all the time. This is by far the hardest decision I ever had to make 'cuz I love the metal, the tours and the band. What we did together, no one can take that away from me and I'll remember every country we've visited for as long as I live. And to the people I've met on the road and all the fans: Thank you so much for being there. You made all the difference to me...
"I know for sure that the remaining four boys in MNEMIC will not slow down. We part as best friends and will remain so......You guys are the shit!! Thank you.
Goodbye everybody....I had a blast...and who knows.....maybe we'll see each other somewhere in the future..."
The remains of Mnemic has released the following statement:
"It is sad it has come to this, but Michael has chosen a different path in his life and wishes to leave the band. This last weekend, we did our last gig together in Gothenburg, Sweden - which was one of the most intense and energetic gigs we have ever done, and this night will not be forgotten for a very long time.
"Thanks to all of our friends in IMPIOUS, ENGEL, DARK TRANQUILLITY, ARCH ENEMY and most important Patric Ullaeus, who came out and made it all special for everybody! We now would like to take this time to wish Michael all the best and good luck in future endeavours."
Hardworking as always it didn't take Mnemic long to announce that they have already found a replacement for Micheal, Tony Jelencovich formerly of TRANSPORT LEAGUE/B-THONGP
Mnemic has released the following comment with regards to the choice of Tony Jelencovich:
"Tony has been a longtime friend of the band, and we are 100 percent confident that he is the right man for the job!"
We wish both Michael and Mnemic all the best! |
