September / October 2007
:: "Due to a recurring ankle injury Chris Summers will not be performing with the band on the ongoing
US tour, He has been advised by specialists in Norway that he needs total rest to remedy the damage
that has been done. Stepping in on the drums for this run will be long time friend Thomas Dahl."
- turbonegro.com / Sept. 2007
:: Rune 'Rebellion' Gronn plays his last show with the band on October 27, 2007 leaving Pål Pot to step up as full time guitarist.
Not a big step for the communist dictator as he was the band's lead axe man in the early days.
As an orginal founding member Rune played rhythm guitar and could be considered Turbonegro's Malcomn Young. A musical mason of sorts provinding brick and mortar to wall of sound known as Deathpunk.
When asked about his decesion to leave the band Rune said, "Between touring, Turbo management and day job at Universal, there's not enough time for me to
even get wasted anymore..let alone spend time with my wife and daughter." Rune went on to say that he, "...will still be involved in the Turbo organization in the future."

March 2008
:: In an interview with the Norwegian daily VG, Grønn, who continues as the band’s manager, describes Summers'
departure as a gradual transition: "Christer has been on sick leave for a few months due to an ankle injury. The band has played sixty concerts with his stand-in Tomas Dahl, and it is
partially in respect to Dahl as de facto drummer that Summers now leaves the band officially."
:: Euroboy falls ill which results in the cancellation of European and North American dates.
