Today, it was announced that CTs Palehorse are to split. Together since 2003, the split was said to be amicable and the band remain friends. They will be sorely missed.



- To all that were planning to travel to Germany for Maximum Destruction Festival.. the fest has been cancelled. Word on the street is that a smaller show will be held for all the touring bands, but no information has been released yet, so keep checking the board for more information as I am sure it will be posted up there.

The statement that was released by Rico implies that this will be the end of 17 Stitches, which has put on some of the most awesome shows in west germany, so please add their myspace and show your support.

After some nights without sleep, the 17 Stitches Team made the decision to cancel the Fest. At this point we have to say that our expectations on the Pre Sale not came true and we cannot guarantee the Fees which were promised to the Bands anymore. As well we are worried about all the production costs and all the people who are involved. We can’t take this big risk anymore. We know there are a lot people out there who are sad about that decision but there’s no other solution. Those of you who already bought tickets can refund their money back. We want to thank so many who supported us through all those amazing shows! We know who you are and we love you for what you did. As for now it looks like that this is the end of 17 Stitches as well. – Rico & the Team
