    Breaking news Avantasia

    Some of you might already know this, especially our German members.

    But anyway, I just got a message from my friend Tobi on Facebook, that Avantasia is among the ten finalists for the competition on 25 Feb to choose the artist that will represent Germany in the ESC. Fuck yea!

    BTW, my friend Tobi, who I have worked with as VIP security, is none other than Tobias Sammet.

    And on that metalhead note, here in my opinion is the best ever winner of the ESC.



    And here is the 2nd best.

    Who also is the leader of Edguy. Does that group still exist?

    Oh yes, very much so. That is Tobi's main job. Avantasia started as a side project with guest musicians but has grown into a monster. Edguy ended a tour in December. Their most recent album was Space Police in 2014.
    When I was working VIP security in 2012 at festivals it was Edguy that were playing and that I met, not Avantasia.

    I've seen Edguy on German television. To bad the keyboardplayer was hidden.
