HELLOWEEN - Back In Canada

HELLOWEEN - Back In Canada

German metallers HELLOWEEN have issued the following update:

"Atlanta's sold out and fanatically hoorayed Thursday night show prior to the yearly ProgPower Festival marked one further highlight of the North American leg of the Helloween World Tour.

Followed to Atlanta, Helloween played their shows in Mokena, Illinois and St. Paul, Minnesota before they headed up north to re-enter Canada again for tomorrow's (Thursday, October 2nd) concert in Calgary.

One further highlight are the daily meet & greets after the show, where purchasers of the VIP ticket can meet members of Helloween and GAMMA RAY, chat with the guys have their posters signed and pictures taken.

After Calgary, which is the third and last show in Canada, both bands will head back for the show in Seattle and afterwards drive straight down the West coast for their shows in San Francisco and Los Angeles, before the US tour ends in Santa Fe."

This past Monday (September 29th), BW&BK's Mark Gromen issued the following:

The Hellish Rock tour stopped in Atlanta, as a prelude to the ProgPower USA festival. Certainly kicked the weekend off with a bang, opening with their signature track. In addition to a normal set of Helloween tunes, the Germans were joined for the ('Future World' and 'I Want Out') encore by not only former bandmate Kai Hansen, but the entire Gamma Ray band! During 'Perfect Gentleman' Andi Deris traded his Gambling With The Devil leather jacket for a red dinner jacket, doffed a top hat, plus silver handled cane. Guitarist Michael Weikath looked relaxed, strumming like he was playing a harp and donning a myriad of facial contortions.
