KAMELOT Issue Tour Report Part IV
May 6, 2008, 16 years ago
Florida-based power metallers KAMELOT have issued the following tour report:
"Hello All Kamelotians!!Well the European Tour has come to an end and we are reflecting on all the incredible nights with you all. The finale in Oslo could not have been a better way to cap off 5 weeks of amazing concerts. In the packed SOLD OUT Sentrum Scene in Oslo we were greeted with the loudest fans Oslo has seen in years. One of the highlights of this show was the duet of Roy and his grandfather Kåre (accordion), playing the song 'Danse mi vise'. The crowd of nearly 2,000 were on their feet all night long!
On a somber note, one of our biggest fans from Finland, Marko Makinen, passed away after several months battling cancer. His presence on the KamForum will never be replaced but the lessons we have learned from his bravery will live forever. We wish to send our warmest condolences to Max' family. You can also post your comments here on the forum: In Memory For Max.
We would like to thank the bands FIREWIND and FOREVER SLAVE for their awesome shows every night with us. You all were fantastic on and off stage and we wish you the best. Also all our supporters, Pearl, ESP, LAG, Fame, Peavey, Vic Firth, Stagg, Zildjian and more. Also Thomas Kreidner and ICS Booking, Frode and the team in Oslo, our incredible crew Ingo, Arnold, Roger, Fabio, Wolfgang, Holgar, Linda, Patricia, and Fritz. Anne-Catrin for the great females parts on this and many tours! All the local promoters on this, thank you! It was a pure pleasure and we look forward to the next shows coming up - next up WACKEN!!!! Thanks to all the fans for coming and see you very soon!!"
