Vocalist SEBASTIAN BACH has checked in from Sao Paulo, Brazil with the following update:

"Well, that was crazy.

Thank you Sao Paulo for being an incredible crowd tonight. It is frustrating for us to play in smaller venues sometimes. The crowds are insane and we just got physically attacked trying to leave the venue. Hair was pulled, crew members got punched, my ears are blown because of the sheer excitement and pandemonium playing this place tonight. I know you all want a picture but we can only do so many pictures with you all. It's impossible to take a picture with every single one of you. After playing stadiums here for years, playing the theatre tonight just didn't make sense. We had to do an early show to make room for the samba band coming in after us and it really wasn't fair to the band or the fans.

Doing four cities in four nights by plane is insanely gruelling and it's hard for the fans to understand how physically demanding this is. I would love to hang out with you all but everyone gets so excited they just grab and pull and scream, and it's not that much fun to be grabbed and yanked and pulled at for hours on end. We try to give all our energy onstage, so please try and realize we are just human beings when we are done the show. If I dont feel like posing for pictures for hours on end it doesn't mean I don't like you. It means that I would rather maybe talk, hang out, relax a little. I love you all!

Please try and understand we are people just like you. If I walked up to you and pulled your hair or screamed at you, maybe you wouldn't like it either. We are on a crazy schedule so please bear with us. Don't shoot me, I'm only the piano player okay!

Thanks Sao Paulo see you again in a couple of days!"
