So lets come to the point.
Firstly , let me know Your opinion and speculationson the matter . What was the reason why Pater Baltes has left Accept .
Is it all still Accept ? To me the new Accept should better be called “Lonely Wolf”. And You know, I think that Predator album has a new breath.
Predator, eating You alive.
Was Peter made to leave Accept cause hes role has become smaller as another bass-player, Dani Silbesti has entered the area? Come on. Attack ! Attack! Attack! Attack ! Attaaaaack!

i think peter has now made enough money to get him and his kids through life comfortably and he just wants to go back to being a family man. he probably thinks that this second life with Accept for him was a good run and that it's time to move on.
OR
him and wolf had some sort of disagreement and wolf's ego is bigger than peter's so peter lost out and doesn't want to put up with this version of Accept that should really just be a wolf hoffmann solo project.

There are many bands around which have only one so called original member left. I would still call this band Accept,even though it does not feel as Accept 100%.
When thinking about latest studio album by Accept in my mind there was less and less trademarks of Peter's bass playing. On BOTN there was Teutonic Terror, on Stalingrad and Blind Rage there were typical bass playing by Peter. I do not know whether he lost little bit interest or was that more like more and more Wolf's show.
At live gigs Peter was on fire!

Thanks, guys.
Another question is : how do You think, was it Peter’s decision to stay apart from Symphonical project ? Or he even got no invitation from Wolf ?
This looks very strange to me. Whats the use of two bass-players of You already have one?

I would advise to visit this site: acceptworldwide.proboards.com/We can only guess what are the reasons for Peter leaving the band. I myself don't have any antipathy towards Peter. He has given so much of his life to Accept. No one, I mean no one can demand more from him. Ofcourse I am sad Peter left, but life goes on. I wish him the vey best of luck in the future. He is my all time favourite bass player!

yeah, it's easy to say that peter has really given his whole life to Accept and whatever he wants to do now, he has surely earned the right to do it. he has paid his dues for sure.
i don't know how you "replace" peter baltes. i don't think you do. you just find someone to occupy that spot. and it's not just about the playing, it's about the attitude and creativity. good luck finding someone to do that.

I like his playing and I also like him as a person based on many occasions where I have met him. He is a good entertainer on stage. No one can really replace him, the newcomer will only be a substitute who won't fill Peter's shoes.

^^^^^^^^^ truth. that time he took to talk to me back in 2010 was unforgettable to me. When Juho didn't have a backstage pass and after the gig I was talking with Peter and said that Juho didn't get a pass. He said that we will get Juho here. And we did. Before the show Peter praised my UDO shirt and said that it is a good band!

To me I find it probable that Peter felt abused beeing just a “main bass”, not “the only bass “ of the show.
As a business -man, I see : if you have extra-sfuff, you want exta-power over them. Cause they feel themselves replaceble.
Still I want to visit the gig in May.

So yesterday a friend of mine informed me that he and 5 of his mated gonna attend Accept gig in Moscow on April. So it looks like I gotta buy me ticket untill they are sold out Btw way we have had a nice small talk . The question was : why this tour , which I call “Lonely Wolf” , is Accept but Udo is not Accept? Its all about legal rights to name a band . But as for actulal ingredients, Dirkschneider project with 2 years of world tour is not less Accept than Symphonic Terror.

yeah, it's all about the legal ownership of the name.
you've given a cool name to all the rest of the forthcoming tours as the "lone wolf" tour. hahahaha that's funny man!
