The opener will be ANTAGONIST from Bremen. Marco Schulz (mszim@t-online.de) founded the projekt DIE PATEN as a support for Jane Schuldiner: "I had the idea in November 2001 to organize a charity gig for Chuck Schuldiner. I had the pleasure to meet Chuck in 1995 during the "Full Of Hate" Tour featuring Death, Unleashed, Gorefest Grave, and Hate Squad. Besides I’ve already spent a lot of evenings listening to Chuck’s brilliant musical effusions with my mates. The least I want to do is to help out financially his mother and family, who are deepply indepted because of numerous credits for Chuck’s operations. Alas, Chuck departed this life on December 13h 2001. It has confirmed my intention to set a line up on foot featuring more or less renowned musicians I know from my time at Hate Squad and Richthofen, playing live numerous Death Metal coversongs. The gig is planned to take place at the "Wehrschloß" in Bremen, Germany. Should this event have any positive effect, future gigs will be held." The musicians who are part of the project are: vocals: Felix (ex-Crematory, Abnorm), Jagger (disbelief), Michael (Century, ex-shit for brains), guitar: Matze (ex-Crematory, ex-shit for brains), Joe (disbelief), drums: Elmar (execution), bass: Marco (ex-Hate squad, ex-Richthofen). Songs by Fear Factory, Bolt Thrower, Entombed, Machine Head, Slayer, Hypocrisy, Obituary, Pro Pain and DEATH will be covered.
