I read this story recently on Blabbermouth and I am hoping it is not true.

I know there is a conflict with the touring schedules for both bands but I hope that all this means is that FC are using Klaus as a substitute for Daniel until he is available to work with FC again.  I will always love FC no matter what but a future without Daniel is difficult to imagine.

Daniel does discuss leaving in this interview;

but he says he is leaving and then refers to Klaus as a substitute so it is not clear if he is leaving forever or is just taking a break to focus on Gamma Ray and then coming back to FC. 

If anybody can clear this up please post here with the truth as I do not trust anything I read on Blabbermouth.
