HELLOWEEN returns from Asia & Australia!

März 5th, 2008 David Bredebach

After 13 shows in Japan, Korea, Thailand, Indonesia, Singapore and Australia, the guys safely arrived back home.

Singer Andi Deris comments the tour as follows: “”It was quite a piece of work to travel all these distances, being in the plane for many hours every other day.

But it was more than worth it - we went to exotic countries, met great people who gave their best to arrange the shows best possible and the enthusiastic fans made every single concert a very special memory for us. In some countries we have been before, some we visited the first time, but one thing is for sure: It was not the last time, we will be back! Thanks to everybody who came to the shows and had a great time with us!”

After a small break to recover, we are looking forward to meet our crazy fans in Latin America next!
