I just read about Francesco leaving. I wonder why he would give up such an gig. He finally got the chance to play drums on the U.D.O. albums, everybody is impressed, then he leaves? Isn't one of you here in the forum a bigtime drummer? If so, you should go get this gig.

So this is what happens when I keep myself away from the net for a few days... Francesco leaves .U.D.O., Herman and Stefan leave ACCEPT... and Joe C ocker dies. Really sad about Francesco. As phil says he just got the chance to show what he could do in the studio. And I have to say he stood the test. And now the "almost original" line-up of ACCEPT is broken. Really sad. But I can imagine the reasons... I think Stefan and Herman - since they weren't songwriters in ACCEPT - couldn't earn enough, but didn't have enough time for other projects because ACCEPT spins round like a wheel. It's a vicious circle. As far as Uwe Lulis goes I think he's part of the ACCEPT road-crew so that's why there's ACCEPT on his FB profile.

i guess francesco has been getting a lot of requests for him to put in a good word for some other drummers to replace him. who the hell would do something like that? if you'd just quit your job and people you don't even know started asking for you to call your old boss up and put in a good word for them, would you do it?! hell no!!! some people have a lot of nerve. here's the post from francesco's fb page. this has been translated by google so it may sound funky....
The fact that i left the u.d.o. doesn ' t mean that i do as a manager to the band ! I find it very distasteful that people, ( drummers ) without respect, keep on calling & taking me Messages only to ask me for ' to help ' or ' put a good word for me to join The band '. Even facebook friendships requests received ' in recent days for these reasons alone make me upset! What the frigg! Have a bit ' of humility & decency! Who knows you? Who has ever heard about you? How could i put a good word for someone the don ' t even know? It takes a lot of nerve! In the u.d.o. website you ' ll find the e - mail to send them everything you want. I know don ' t get in touch with me for this reason anymore! Thank you!

There is some info that Uli Kusch is new drummer of UDO. Hmm. I've heard that he is an expensive man and not the nicest guy. But yes, he is a good drummer for sure.

Too good to be true?

Yes, somebody reads my mind It's too good to be true. Fast drummer, just like Stephan Sschwarzmann is, would make UDO back to the first era of "big four" albums.
