So that is, let's talk about the upcoming tour, how many shows are we going to see and where So far, I can confirm myself being at Madrid's show on April 30th!
The only metal 'festival' we have in India [which got Maiden and Megadeth, amongst many smaller artists] decided to go gay. They are getting Backstreet Boys. What the fuck?!
I will absolutely be at next month's show in Austin, TX. Just requested a few days off of work and told my husband to do the same. It's been way too long since I saw them last.
For me it'll be in Paris on 14th may! (Ollo you're wrong, check the tourdates!) It's gonna be great because my brothers will be there too!!!
I really hope they'll play a show in Copenhagen!! I really want to see them live! Have loved them since I first heard them!
Hoping to meet Kobi at one of the shows ... I was going totally wild when seeing the band's European tourdates, I hope to do multiple gigs as several shows are not too far away and with low budget flights and such ...

I mean what can you answer to such a question? Cause I think he was serious.
Already said that I'll be at Paris show (maybe Nantes too...) but needed to say that Arkhan is a great band too. I saw them touring with Septic Flesh (Holy Records forever!!!!) and well, they kick asses!!! I recommend it to you oriental metal lovers. (Yannick I saw your post on Arkhan's myspace, hope to meet you "à Paris" )
I'm still hoping that they will do a German Tour in the next years. I would love to see them live, but there is no chance for me to get to Wacken or any other Festival. So please, guys, do a German Tour.
