The Pitz, Milton Keynes 07.07.2007:
Please note everybody, GMT are playing as special guest to Led Zep Tribute Band 'Whole Lotta Led'.
GMT will be on stage at 19.55h sharp, so don't be late!
Should be a brilliant night. Hope to see you all there.
This is going to be a great night, not only our own GMT but arguably one of the best Led Zep tribute bands in the country and all for £11. Details of The Pitz can be found here

Whole Lotta Led nearly always sell out when they play there attracting an all age crowd perfect for GMT. If anyone is coming along and needs directions, give me a shout. Because luckily for me this is right on my doorstep. See you all at 7.55 sharp, anyone got an idea of how long they will be on stage? Am guessing an hour.
More to come:
Some Rock & Blues fans aswell as Ace and Cannonball would appreciate some Northern gigs I am sure.
Chris Dale of Sacktrick fame and DJ at

Two Scottish gigs confirmed in October.
There's a posting about it on Blabbermouth.net:
GUY-MCCOY-TORME (GMT), which features in its ranks Irish guitarist Bernie Torme (GILLAN, OZZY OSBOURNE), is continuing to promote its latest album, "Bitter & Twisted", released on Torme's label Retrowrek Records.
Handling both guitar and vocals, Torme has partnered with his old compadre from GILLAN, bassist John McCoy — who has worked with Joey Belladonna, SAMSON, and the UK SUBS, among others — and drummer Robin Guy (whose credentials include FAITH NO MORE and BRUCE DICKINSON) to form the GMT three-piece nucleus.
"I'm so pleased, I can't believe it," says Bernie Torme about the rave reactions the new GMT CD has been garnering. "I've been recording albums since 1978 when my first album was recorded, but I don't think I've ever played on an album, or recorded any album that has received such an amazing response. The thing is, we recorded it, and it was just for our own enjoyment. It wasn't actually planned to be a popular album. It was just a case of going and recording an album, just as we are, because it was enjoyable playing together. We've had great press, just amazing press!"

Bernie Torme was listed in the April 2007 edition of Classic Rock magazine's Top 100 Wildest Guitar Heroes. As a follow-up to "Bitter & Twisted", and the band's 3-track EP "Cannonball", GUY-MCCOY-TORME is currently back in the studio recording its next album.
Bernie Torme is known for heroically stepping in and saving the day for OZZY OSBOURNE when Randy Rhoads tragically died. He also toured the world as the lead axeman in GILLAN and formed DESPERADO with TWISTED SISTER frontman Dee Snider and ex-IRON MAIDEN drummer Clive Burr, as well as fronting his own bands ELECTRIC GYPSIES and TORME (featuring Phil Lewis of L.A. GUNS/GIRL fame).
