Guitarist Frank Harthoorn of the reunited Dutch metallers GOREFEST has posted the following message on the band's official web site:
"Yet another tour [involving GOREFEST] is being cancelled, this time by [booking agency] Metallysee: 'Metallysee are sorry to announce the cancellation of the 2006 edition of the X-Mass [Festivals] tour. After too many changes from the original line up to the one we finally had secured, followed by the breakup of Trail Of Tears, it became too confusing for the promoters and fans to try and continue this tour. Metallysee and the remaining bands (GOREFEST, BELPHEGOR, Prostitute Disfigurement, Madder Mortem, and Darzamat) were all aiming for a good festival tour, but the odds just weren't in our favor. We thank everyone that put time and effort into this tour.'"

Harthoorn continues:
"Ever since SIX FEET UNDER pulled out of this tour a couple of months ago, this has been a bit of an ongoing mess. We thought we'd stick with the plan, since this would be about the last chance to do some proper touring for La Muerte before we hit the studio for the next one. When we heard headliner Trail Of Tears split up last week, we already kind of felt this one slipping away, so we suggested to Metallysee we'd head out with a couple of the remaining bands. You know, join forces, cut prices, split the difference and what-not. Metallysee, however, wasn't having any of that, so come the end of 2006 we're looking at three cancelled tours, about 50 cancelled gigs, all within 11 months. That's something, isn't it? Almost looks like that curse Dani Filth put on us back in '94 is finally kicking in. Oh well, worse things happen at sea, I guess. Thankfully, Ed [Warby, drums] and Boudewijn [Vincent Bonebakker, guitar] have come up with some frightfully heavy shit for us to play with. T hey even wrote some songs as well, so for the next months, we'll be throwing riffs, fills, leads and, well, stuff at each other. And while we're having fun doing that, why don't you people head over to our forum and join in the frolics over there? You'll find lots of old ladies to give a right good scare, and who knows, you might even get lucky with some of 'em!"
