JON OLIVA'S PAIN to headline PROGPOWER EUROPE 2007

renejanssen · September 24th, 2006, 01:09 AM

Hi,

With proud we confirm JON OLIVA'S PAIN to headline ProgPower Europe next year on Sunday 7 October. The band will do a show of almost 2 hours including material of JON OLIVA'S PAIN but of course they also will do several SAVATAGE classics.

Last year we already agreed a deal with the band, but their former booker fucked it up! We did not make a point of it at that time, but the band also realised they dealed with the wrong people. Now they are signed to Noisegate Productions in Germany and the deal was arraned in no time, in a very professional way.

So we hope you agree that it means a lot for us to have Jon Oliva on stage, a very important person for the metal scene.

Tickets sales will already start on Monday 2 October.

Greetings,
Rene Janssen

Wow!!! GREAT!!

Absolutely BRILLIANT!!!!

I saw them on Graspop this year and it was a great gig. They did some Savatage covers too, which really blew me away (I am a huge Sava-fan)
Great work, Rene
