HELLOWEEN Cancel Antwerp Gig

December 10, 2005

German power metallers HELLOWEEN were forced to cancel their sold-out show in Antwerp, Belgium on December 10 as a result of singer Andi Deris suffering from the flu. "Andi had caught a cold in Scandinavia," reads a posting on the group's web site. "The band is incredibly sorry about that and of course the show will be escheduled for the second European part of the tour, on February 14th, 2006. The tickets will keep their validity, but they can also be returned to the organizer on demand. Once again: The band is very sorry for that, but shit happens. Therefore the guys are going to give you a great final performance of their European tour next year. As a little compensation, PRIMAL FEAR are going to play a headliner show for a reduced entrance fee tonight."

As previously reported, HELLOWEEN's entire pre-Nuclear Blast catalog will be reissued via Sanctuary during 2006. The albums will be remastered and will contain bonus tracks, including b-sides and other rarities. More information is available at this location.
