KICK-OFF SHOW is almost upon you -- will you be ready?

[SwordLord]

Hello everyone!

First of all I just wanted to say THANK YOU to everyone who has purchased tickets so far to the Kick-Off Show! VIP sold out almost immediately and regular ticket sales are doing very well.

I am writing to ask everyone to "help me out" with advertising this amazing show. This will be the EXCLUSIVE NORTH AMERICAN APPEARANCE for Luca Turilli's Rhapsody this year and easily for the foreseeable future. If I was a betting man, I'd say it's more than likely this could be your only chance to see them. Furthermore, I will also bet that you will hear some songs on Thursday night that you will never hear live again.

Combined with an amazing stage-show for which I have rented extra equipment and a band that is beyond excited for their American debut, the show you are about to experience on Thursday will be unforgettable.

Please share this from your various social media pages and let people know about this (maybe) once-in-a-lifetime chance to see Luca Turilli's Rhapsody on US soil. CIRCLE II CIRCLE and IN THE SILENCE are also going to add an extra blast of heavy metal thunder to the evening. Three amazing bands - one unforgettable night!

I am stoked out of my mind to be able to present this kick-ass show to all of you. Thanks to Glenn for giving me this opportunity and thank you to everyone who has purchased tickets. We are going to have an unforgettable time on 9/5!

Beyond words how much I am looking forward to this!

So looking forward to the Kick-Off show VIP experience

Absolutely. I'm assuming an email will go out a few days before the show with details?

 

[Rider of Theli]

HELL YEAH! I've been on a RHAPSODY kick all week.


Note I said 'RHAPSODY', and not 'Rhapsody of Fire'. (never liked that surname)

 

[truemindframe]

Cannot wait to hear what he ends up playing! The idea of possibly hearing songs from his first 2 solo albums is completely hyping me up!

Same here :hotjump::hot jump: I did request to be seated front house though, as I don't think I can stand for 5 hours straight. I could, all for the name of Metal, and get advantage of the VIP offer and be right there in front of the stage, but don't know!!!

Dude!!! I've been ready since the day you announced the damned thing and I jumped on those VIP tickets the second I heard about them! Glad I did!

I am so friggan stoked about this and cannot wait!! Will be awesome to get to see you and hangout again as well. To bad no trips to Minneapolis this year. Probably next when my other niece graduates, and if I do, I'll be sure to look you up.

 

[AngraRULES]

I can't believe I'll get to see Ancient Forest of Elves played live!

Yeah man, will be great to see you again as well -- when you get up to my neck of the woods, drop me a line and we will hang out!

 

[SwordLord]

As for VIP information, yes, a more formal email will be going out in the days to come - plan on VIP doors being around 4:00pm ... see everyone soon!

 

[labarum]

2 Hypothetical bets from the Sword in one post? I can't believe it!

Am wondering what the special extra equipment is? I can only hope its some type of stage harness rigging so we can see Luca fly around the stage breathing musical fire notes onto everyone. Too much to ask?

 

[SavaVIDude]

Thanks, Nathan!! Even though my good friends MindCrime are playing, as well as many other bands I want to see - your show will be the highlight of PP for me this year. Rhapsody (either one!!) is the band I have never seen that I want to see more than any other. I am really interested if the CDs translate well in a live performance.

I dunno if you could tell or not, but I am a HUGE Savatage fan, so I am also stoked for CIIC.

[Azrael LenGraden]

Yeah...CIIC will be the highlight of this show for me...Hearing The Wake of Magellan live will be a treat!

 

[Angrafan]

The new Circle II Circle line up is the best they've ever had. They are doing an amazing job with The Wake of Magellan. Had the pleasure to see them in Brazil and it was truly great.

 

[DeJumbi]

I saw somewhere that CIIC was also playing a super short set of their stuff. Is there any truth to that?

 

[Pellaz]

I'm trying to remember if I bought tickets to the Thursday show or not....it's been a while.

 

[SwordLord]

I saw somewhere that CIIC was also playing a super short set of their stuff. Is there any truth to that?

Yes. I believe they are planning about 20-30 minutes worth of their original songs. They get 90 minutes and they intend to use every bit - will be quite extraordinary, I assure you!
