?The last years have not been easy for Masterplan?,?band leader Roland Grapow comments.??Because of several factors we have been unable to play festivals and tours – even though we had plenty of offers. But this will definitely change now. I?m very happy to welcome Rick and Jari on board now. Beside their undoubted musical qualities they both fit perfectly into our team. We feel a huge motivation to get things going now. 2013 will be see a new Masterplan album, several festivals and a tour! It?s time to return with full force?.
