If they can't get their shit back together, Rik needs to get a new group...Deen would be perfect on drums/vocals...maybe a Marco Mendoza on bass. Play Triumph/Journey and write some original stuff. I'm there. I guess it's too early in the day to be drinking, but it is Friday and 5 oclock somewhere.
Now THAT would be awesome! Hope they get back together though.......
A combination of being inducted in the Canadian Music Hall of Fame and the wishes of Rik's brother when he passed away (cancer) helped lead the guys to a reunion. Triumph performed two shows last year - Sweden Rock Festival and Rocklahoma. There were plans for a North American Tour this year...but I am sure the recession played a major role in a tour not coming together for the band.
Just as a reminder...I have Rik coming back to Texas in November - Poor David's Pub in Dallas, TX on Friday, November 20 -
