KROKUS! Hell yeah!!
Looks like this reuinon was a one time deal:
...the show is featuring Swiss rock bands and, where humanly possible, in the formation of their formative years (many of which have not played together for decades). And KROKUS is no exception. The following classic lineup of KROKUS will be featured:
Marc Storace ("the voice"), Chris Von Rohr (bass), Fernando Von Arb (guitar) and Freddy Steady (drums).
Marc Storace's comments to the most burning questions fans might have:
Question: "When was the last time you stood in this line-up on stage?"
Storace: "That was about 23 years ago somewhere in the USA."
Question: "Is this the first step of a reunion of the original formation? Do you plan to play live gigs?"
Storace: "No, this is a one time thing and it will be fun to recall the old days."
Question: "Why did you do it?"
Storace: "Swiss TV asked us and we were told that the public interest in original bands was enormous."
Question: "Are you now friends again and are all the problems of the past forgotten?"
Storace: "I think that "friends" is too strong of a word but at least we speak to each other and we will attempt to treat one another fair in the future."
Question: "What are your next plans?"
Storace: "Writing songs with the current line-up for the next album with a couple of gigs sprinkled here and there in December, mainly in Switzerland, to keep us "on the edge" for the next tour."
The current lineup of KROKUS consists and will consist of Marc Storace (vocals), Mandy Meyer (lead guitar), Dominique Favez (rhythm guitar), Tony Castell (bass) and Stefan Schwarzmann (drums)
