it is with a bittersweet feeling that i have decided to leave Metalleeka, it has been a wonderful time, why am i leaving?.... i love the music of Metallica but my first music love in a band situation is definitely playing hard rock/classic rock, i have a potential very exciting venture in the pipeline, but if it comes off, those of you that know me well will say, "yes i can see why he wants to do that", even if that doesnt happen, you will see me very soon doing the kind of stuff that i'm always waxing lyrical about, it will have my usual quality control stamp all over it with some tasty shredding and singing melodic guitar syrup :-) i can say right here and now i have never fallen out with Scott, Kev or Aaron, this is my own decision, they are brilliant guys, i am proud to call them friends and i already have some fantastic memories, my last gigs will be Hindley Arms 7th August, Jolly Naylor Atherton (my final gig) 14th August. i am delighted to announce my brilliant replacement , James from Steelfield, his first gig will be 21st August at the Cricketers Shaw,James like myself has years of experience,a pro outlook,a wonderful guitarist and he is a brilliant guy

its been an exciting journey and im proud to have been a part of it, one month to go, enjoy it and get ready to watch James take the baton and run wild and free!!

god bless

Robert

Continued good luck to Metalleeka - you have deserved support - and all the best to Mr Redfern with his new venture (you're gonna need a backdrop!).

Seems like a season of change....

AYP

@ Rob "Mustaine" Redfern- very, very best wishes on any future venture you undertake, bro-may you find that which you seek.
and-scott?-you couldn't have a better place to debut james, could you?-we'll see to it that it's a memorable one-for all the right reasons!! ;-D

all the best rob, is seem you have been torn mentaly bettween your classic rock and metaleeka, sadly if you are in a tribute band you have to be 100 per cent at home with repeatedly doing the chosen bands music, it works for some but not for others, glad scott and the others can still continue because mettaleeka has sprung up from nowhere and deserves to be out there on the circuit, you will be back on stage soon no doubt, and good luck, cricky i sound like an agony aunt.

Viking you know me very well brother, you know i had some metal stuff that i needed to get out there and try, Metallica are awesome, always wanted to try this and it has met and exceeded expectations, i am very happy to have been playing with yet another brilliant and friendly bunch of guys, who will remain firm friends,you know too V where my main musical love lies, 70s rock, classic hard rock /metal and hair rock, right there is my utopia, i hope my contibutions have brought some air guitar happiness :0)

you will see me soon, there was a brilliant irony that scott phoned me tonight as i was learning the solo to Whitesnakes "is this love" :0)

good luck to both of you (rob & james ) you got the ideal man to step in to the breach,enjoy guys.

Good luck Robert Redford with your future musicianary :) and continue the good stuff Metalleeka!

@bat-pmsl!!(he gets cross with me when i remind him of that!!):-D

I always read it as Redford, and it will stick like that forever. :)

oh look, Sabre Pete!! Hello Pete! :)

@rob mustaine redFORD(!)-that's a big "hell yeah!!" to that,bro!! ;-D

(turns green David Banner style)

@bat-NOW see what you gone and made me do!!! -hail'n'runawayyyyyyy!!!

Hey Rob, has Coverdale been sniffing around your door?

I think Rob has got radiation.

playing in whitesnake that would be my dream job, end of. and im from yorkshire too, me and dave would reminisce about our favourite pubs in robin hoods bay

yeah.. but Dave would do it in a hybrid American stroke Queens english dialect!!! Still.. he shagged Tawny and I didnt so one nil Coverdale!!

Best of luck to James and Rob and to you guys, Metalleeka, getting better with every gig.

All the very best Rob. Will miss seeing you with Scott and the lads, that said, James put on a superb performance at The Eddy on Friday. Get that Whitesnake Trib band together mate.

Which snake trib is that? Lol I don't know any coverdales, but something along the hard rock route could be afoot, watch this space :0)

@ bat, hello. pm sent

"it will have my usual quality control stamp all over it with some tasty shredding and singing melodic guitar syrup :-) "..are you starting a Darkness tribute?

Only messing Rob. All the best.

That's a damn shame.... but cycle of life goes on i guess....happy new beginnings to you all guys.

Someone new in the queue for the broom closet eh Scott?

LittleminxDi x

And I get to watch metalleeka!! How cool is that!!

From one tribute band to another......

Best wishes guys and good luck to both Metalleeka and Rob in the future.
