November 9, 2009, 14 years ago
Montréal, Québec's UNEXPECT have issued the following update:
"Time flies fast and we're already back in Montreal after a most intense adventure. The European Progressive Nation Tour '09 is now part of the past. A titanic thanks goes : - To all the crew who worked each day like insane beasts to make this musical orgy happen.- To the fans from all countries... you rocked so much and gave us such a warm welcome... it was unbelievable!
- BIG ELF and OPETH... we couldn't have better companions to enjoy the ride... we salute you and can't wait for our roads to cross again ;)
- And of course, heartfelt thanks to Mike Portnoy and DREAM THEATER for inviting us to share this epic musical tribune... you guys have been perfect hosts!
We got some more pictures on our MySpace page to commemorate it all so go check those out! Also created a Fan Art/Tattoos section in the pictures section so don't hesitate to send us your unexpect related creations!
In addition to that, we collected a couple of videos from the tour that people posted on YouTube on our Official YouTube channel (see clips below) including Landryx's Jam with Portnoy at the Wembley Arena of London (which ended by a drummer quartet!)... and since we played a new song in our setlist, some people obviously filmed it... so here's a chance to glimpse a small parcel of the upcoming CD ;)
For those who know the Computer game Frets on Fire (similar to Guitar Hero), someone programmed our song 'Vespers Gold' from
first album Utopia to play along! Here is the download link!
Now that we're back home, we'll finish up the mix of the new album with Jef Fortin as soon as he gets back from his own tour. We won't
be doing any more shows for a while now until we release the album so don't miss the chance to see us at the Trois-Rivières Metalfest
next weekend!"
