German metallers HELLOWEEN — who are currently taking part in the "Hellish Rock Tour" alongside GAMMA RAY and AXXIS — have issued the following update:

"The Spanish portion of the 'Hellish Rock Tour' has started with a sold-out concert in Barcelona where the performances of all the three bands — AXXIS, GAMMA RAY, HELLOWEEN — have been filmed. While the performances of AXXIS and HELLOWEEN will be used at a not confirmed later date, GAMMA RAY will be using the recordings to update their long-awaited DVD with the working title 'Hell Yeah!!! The Awesome Foursome', which will now be released this year."

GAMMA RAY's DVD, entitled "Hell Yeah! The Awesome Foursome (And The Finnish Keyboarder Who Didn't Want To Wear His Donald Duck Costume) Live in Montreal", is also expected to feature a multi-camera recording of the band's May 6, 2006 show at Medley in Montreal, Quebec.

According to the Spanish web site Rafabasa.com, METALIUM singer Henning Basse will perform with GAMMA RAY in Lugo (Jan. 17) and Baracaldo (Jan. 18),Spain. GAMMA RAY frontman Kai Hansen has had a terrible flu since yesterday (Wednesday, January 16) and doctors have ordered him not to sing for the next two days so that he can recover as soon as possible. Kai will play guitar in Lugo and Baracaldo but sadly won't be able to sing. The vocal duties will be handled by his friend Henning, who has flown to Spain to assist with the shows.

It is not presently clear if Kai will be able to sing for GAMMA RAY in Madrid (Jan. 19) and Granada (Jan. 20).
