Europe to celebrate 30 years of The Final Countdown!

Created by WackenJasper
03/14/2016

The Swedish Hard Rock heroes Europe will celebrate their 30th Anniversary of their iconic The Final Countdown album. In honor of this occasion, the band is going to play a few special shows, where they will perform the album in it’s entire for the very first time.

 

But they will also perform other hits and classics from their entire career. Joey Tempest explains:

 

“With a catalog of songs as big as ours, it is hard to devote so much of the set list to one album. But this anniversary is special and we want to give the fans what they have asked for. The whole band is proud and excited to play the whole album from start to finish, especially as this, our third album, made it possible for us to fulfil our dream to become an international touring band. To make it extra special we will try and play songs from War Of Kings and other albums we haven't played before and at the same time we want to design a show that will be majestic and memorable for all of us.”

 

German fans should mark the 11th of November in their calendars, because the band is going to hit the E-Werk in Cologne this day.

 

Exclusively at Metaltix, you can add the special edition bands latest record "War Of Kings" in addition to your ticket!
