HELLOWEEN: Polish Concert Cancelled Due To Poor Ticket Sales

December 22, 2005

German power metallers HELLOWEEN have been forced to cancel their Polish concert, which was scheduled for January 12, 2006 at Poznan's Arena due to "poor ticket sales," according to the promoter, Metalfest. Only 150 tickets (for an over-4,000-capacity venue) had reportedly been sold at the time of the cancellation, reports Interia.pl. Special guests for this show were going to be fellow Germans PRIMAL FEAR.

HELLOWEEN played two concerts in Poland (Cracow and Warsaw) in November.

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.

HELLOWEEN's latest album, "Keeper of the Seven Keys - The Legacy", is available now on SPV Records. The lineup on the record includes singer Andi Deris, guitarists Michael Weikath and Sascha Gerstner, bassist Markus Großkopf and drummer Dani Löble (ex-RAWHEAD REXX). Produced by Charlie Bauerfeind (BLIND GUARDIAN, HALFORD, RAGE),"Keeper of the Seven Keys - The Legacy" was released as a high-quality digipack with six flaps.
