I'm back after a few weeks absence from this site. The gig in Norrköping with Shineth went great.
I would like thank Anders Berlin and Sebastian Roos for picking me as their drummer
for the show. I hope we will do it again in a near future. I had a blast!
The live page has been updated. I'm doing a bunch of gigs with Rockbusters.
It's a cover band I've started together with Erik Mårtensson of Eclipse on lead vocals
and bass and Andreas Rydman on guitar. In other words, a power trio.
We're playing at Harry's in Eskilstuna, Sweden, Friday and Saturday this weekend.

PRESS RELEASETo whom it may concern.
After five years behind the drums in melodic hard rock band Eclipse I have
decided to leave the band.
Musically it's been a pleasure playing with Eclipse. The guys are all very
good musicians and I love the music we created together. I am proud of
my contributions on Second To None but the time has come for me to move on.
I wish all of the guys in and around the Eclipse-camp the best of good luck
for the future. The fans I've met during my time in Eclipse have always
been marvellous and loyal. I hope to see you in the future as well.
I will continue to co-operate with manager Andreas Nyström and Nyström Management.
Check out my homepage www.magnusulfstedt.com for regular updates on my
future projects and live performances.
Best regards,
Magnus Ulfstedt

I´m back!
I've had a great summer. I'vebeen in the studio working on some songs
with my old friend and excellent guitar player Robert Andersson.
Hopefully the songs will end up on cd in a near future, I'll get back on that.
I have also got myself involved in a few new projects wich I will come back to
when the time is right.
This weekend, Friday 18and Saturday 19,I will do a just-for-fun gig at Pub Anchor
in Stockholm. Playing 80's hardrock covers with some friends. Erik Mårtensson of Eclipse
is the lead singer. On guitar I got Peter Östros from German rockers Jaded Heart and the
bass is handled by Conny Goldsmith from M.O.B.
