News : Mark De Vattimo leaves Voyager

By on June 12, 2008

mark.jpgLong time Voyager guitarist, Mark De Vattimo, has left Voyager due to “personal and professional differences”. You can read his press release below.

After nearly ten years with Voyager, I have decided to quit. I’ve enjoyed the mad, mental Metal times and gigs that have been played by the band during this time. I have not enjoyed the low times as much, obviously.

The reasons are not the typical clichéd ‘musical differences’ type deal… they are personal and professional differences. People change, attitudes evolve/devolve and things aren’t always what they seem.

It’s time for me to move on!

I have other projects happening such as the reformation and ‘upgrading’ of Psychonaut, a Black Sabbath band called Sabotage (we’re available for funerals/weddings too!) as well as the WeakDesignCo which specializes in graphics for bands etc (www.myspace.com/weakdesignco). Cheap plug!

I wish the remaining V members the best for their future and thank them for the past.

A huge handshake to Cindy Bird, DVS and Dockyard 1… and to YOU for your support and loyalty! See you soon.

Regards,
Mark De Vattimo
