30STM: "This weekend will be goodbye for some time" - 14:45 08 Thursday May 2008
30 Seconds To Mars frontman Jared Leto has told Kerrang! that the band's headline date in Edinburgh on Friday and this weekend's Give It A Name festival will be British fans' last opportunity to see the cult American rockers for some time.
"We're really happy to be coming back to the UK," Leto told K! "More than anything it's a chance for us to say thank you and goodbye to everyone who has been so supportive and kind towards us on the back of the last record."
Leto revealed that the reason why this weekend's shows will be the band's last in the UK for a while is because 30STM are poised to hit the studio to start work on the follow-up to their 2005 breakthrough album A Beautiful Lie.
"We're going to be doing a new record in the not-too-distant future," says Leto. "So we'll be spending a lot of time writing and recording. We may not be back for quite some time, but at the moment our priority is on creating new music."
