TALISMAN - Tour Diary; Rio De Janiero Date Added
June 3, 2007, 17 years ago
As previously reported, TALISMAN, featuring singer Jeff Scott Soto (JOURNEY, ex-YNGWIE MALMSTEEN) are in the midst of their 2007 tour, with a performance last evening in Bilbao, Spain. The band had this to say regarding the show:
"It's Saturday (June 2nd) in Bilbao. It's 20:25, we're leaving for the show in an hour. Today we were picked up at the airport by a dude that we all started to make jokes about - the result of ten generations of inbreeding, his mother was his sister etc. His driving was unsafe, especially as the band was placed in seats covered with old carpets and no chance of seatbelts. To our shock and dismay we later found out he was doubling as the house sound-man for tonight's show. Just now he took us back to the hotel and brought a friend, and Jeff said "if a spanish cinematic version of Beavis & Butthead was to be made and needed actors, look no further. We'll see how this develops..."The band have also announced an additional date to the tour on July 7th at the Rival Theatre in Rio De Janeiro. The remaining dates are as follows:
