SEPTEMBER 27 ::.

BREAKING NEWS!!!

Lead guitarist Dee Dee has very rapidly decided to leave
the band due to private and personal reasons. His decision is understandable
and accepted by the other bandmembers. - This is however
something we could not predict and therefore some 'last-
minute-actions' need to be considered. The show tonight Sept 27th
in Sundsvall [SWE] is forced to be postponed 'til later and
the in-store acoustic appearance at Heron City in Stockholm
is unfortunally cancelled!!!

The Stockholm show at Tantogården on Wednesday Oct 1st is
still on thanks to Martin Sweet of CrashDïet whom is filling in
temporarily on lead guitar. Stay tuned for more news and updates
regarding the situation. We're very sorry for all the inconvenience.

German/Swiss shows cancelled

gemini5 — Wed, 24 Sep 2008 15:35:07 +0000

The tour of Germany and Switzerland in October is unfortunally off!!!
We're very sorry to announce that due to difficult circumstances
beyond the german booker 'Save the Night bookings' control the band has
agreed to, after a careful consideration, postpone the tour 'til early 2009.
This is however concerning the already confirmed 4 shows in Hamburg,
Frankfurt, Uster and Berlin.
New dates and a full tour covering more cities and venues will be
organized later on. For already bought and paid for advance tickets,
please contact your local club/promotor for a full refund on your purchase.

We apologize for any inconvenience and we're promising to be heading to
Germany as soon as possible. Thank you for understanding.

PLEASE WELCOME NEW MEMBER 'DEE DEE'!!!

gemini5 — Thu, 20 Mar 2008 20:51:49 +0000

Finally!
We’re extremely proud to announce the new lead guitarist of GEMINI FIVE;
Mr Dany "Dee Dee" Douglas.

After we went out for a quest for fire, we hit the jackpot!
Young blooded Dee Dee will certainly bring some lixx, shredding
mind blowing moves. All this with the looks that kill!
He’s all fresh with an open mind to the whole scene which
we think will suit the band more that perfect at this point.

Native of the swedish small town Karlstad.
And good friends with our pal and stand-in Cat (Deathstars).
Actually, it was Cat that first brought Dee Dee to our attention.

Please welcome Dee Dee to the Gemini Five Posse :)

// All the bezt!

GEMINI FIVE HAS PARTED WITH GUITARIST SNOOPY!

gemini5 — Tue, 28 Aug 2007 22:05:51 +0000

GEMINI FIVE HAS PARTED WITH GUITARIST SNOOPY!

BREAKING NEWS FLASH
AUGUST 28, 2007

Snoopy is out if the band!
It's with mixed emotions and great sadness we presents this change to the original line-up but we; Pete, Tin and Rod had come to the conclusion to cut Snoopy loose from the band.
- We had absolutely not done this if we felt it wasn't absolutely necessary for the best interest, continuation and progress of Gemini Five, says the members. This break-up between Gemini Five and Snoopy is 'cause of differences on both the personal and musical levels and with a different vision of the bands musical direction for future releases.

To be able to reach for the skies and to keep the vision of Gemini Five alive and well, we felt we were needed to make sacrifices to keep the flame burning even stronger and higher than ever before.

However, the song writing and approach of the band will still be intact! The main songwriters are still in the band and Pete, Tin and Rod will continue the progress and we will garantee to deliver much more intense and better music than ever before. This is for the sake and health of the band and to be able to give You all FANS what you deserve as we will be true to you all; THE GEMINI FIVE FANS.

We wish Snoopy the best of luck with whatever he will take upon himself in the future.

All shows and plans will be proceed as usual. A temporary lead guitarist will be filling in on the October shows until a permanent member will be chosen. This will be published to our websites soon.

Yours sincerely //
TIN STAR, SLIM PETE AND HOT ROD - GEMINI FIVE
