British thrashers EVILE have announced a string of shows for a UK tour to take place in early 2010. EVILE will embark on their UK tour in January, marking the first tour since the tragic passing of the band’s bassist, MIKE ALEXANDER, on October 5th, 2009.
The confirmed tour dates are as follows:
14 Jan 2010 – Cardiff, UK – Barfly

After deciding to continue as a band following MIKE ALEXANDER’s death, EVILE is now starting to audition new bassists. With so little time until the new year tours, the band is simply looking for an experienced, friendly and skilled professional bassist/musician.
Applicants must be able to commit 100% to the band, be expected to be available for extensive global touring (with a valid passport) from January 2010 onwards, be a resident of the UK (preferably close to Huddersfield, but not necessary) and have touring/performing experience.

* Full name
* Age
* Location
* A quality link to a video of you playing the bass (YouTube etc.)
* A few pictures of yourself (on and off stage)

All applications must be received by December 8th, 2009.
