ASP & Mono Inc.

Being a fan since ‘Weltunter’, I was quite excited what surprises the evening would bring up to me. First of all, gathering all my friends at the railway station and driving roundabout 120 kilometres from my hometown, it was not so easy to find the place “Alte Eisenbahnhalle” in Losheim, where the magic should happen. But when we caught sight of the first wagons, relief took place…
