February 12, 2012, 12 years ago
Vocalist Amanda Somerville (TRILLIUM, AVANTASIA) has posted a new video blog from the ROCK MEETS CLASSIC 2012 European tour, along with the following update:
"Here we are in Wurzburg, Regensburg, Mannheim and Paris. This vlog covers quite a bit of territory and events, namely some silly soundcheck antics, Alex taking over all of the guitar work while Olli was off galavanting with his own shindig, then Nena, Mat and I getting the stomach flu and spending our lovely off days in Mannheim and / or Paris on / in front of the toilet (it hit Mat first in Mannheim, then Nena on the way to Paris and me during what was supposed to be a fabulous dinner in Paris). Yeah. Nice. Can I please for-the-love-of-God have a tour where I DON'T wind up worshipping the porcelain god at some point (where I'm not to blame)?"The tour wrapped up on January 28th in Halle, Germany
