After decades without touring, the Canadian trio Triumph will be back on the road with their classic lineup: Gil Moore (drums), Rik Emmett (guitar and vocals), and Mike Levine (bass). However, as Moore said in an interview with CHOM 97.7 FM, Levine will be playing on selected dates, while he and Emmett will perform at all shows. They will be joined by guitarist Phil X, who was part of the band in the 1990s replacing Rik, as well as bassist Todd Kerns and keyboardist Brent Fitz.
Triumph says bassist Mike Levine will not play at every show on their tour
“There was a lot of confusion, I think, that came from a number of sources and so on, and that’s why we posted (a statement on our social media clarifying that). But Rik and myself will be on stage playing the whole show. With us, we brought Phil X back into the band, who, of course, played a tour with us and recorded an album with us in 1992. So we got a double-barreled shotgun on guitar. And we’re hoping Mike Levine will be there. He’s gonna be at selected shows, but Rik and I will be at every show. And we also have — we borrowed Brent Fitz and Todd Kerns from Slash’s band, so they’re gonna be there to help us as well.”
“Well, Mike, he’s had some struggles, so that’s why I say he’ll be at select shows as he’s able, but he can’t commit to being at all the dates. He’s very, very pumped up about the tour, so he’s very much part of everyday discussions with Triumph. He’s not as interested as Rik and I are in what’s going on, and we’ve got every hope that he’s gonna be at as many shows as he can make,” Gil Moore said (Transcribed by Blabbermouth).
