Day 2: Leaves’ Eyes, Epica, Sirenia, Flowing Tears, Elis, Delain, Seraphim, Battlelore, Draconian, Distorted, Interria, Valkyre
After a night of some heavy chicks it was time for a long day of female fronted metal. Starting out with an early show of Valkyre and ending with the DVD show of Leaves’ Eyes "En Saga I Belgia". It was promising to be a long but very entertaining day. The 3.500 fans of female fronted bands would not be disappointed!http://www.metalfemalevoicesfest.be/ / http://www.myspace.com/mfvf

Westfalenhalle 2, Dortmund, Germany26th October 2007
Sunrise Avenue, Christian Venus, Grand Avenue
SUNRISE AVENUE ‘On the Way to Wonderland’ - there is no better way to describe this band than with their band name and title of the album itself which marks the phenomenal career of this Finnish rock sensation. The last month seem like a Hollywood fairytale from Sunset Boulevard when the band made it to the most successful newcomer in Europe. After several sold-out shows earlier this year, the band is now back in Germany for some more shows, among others the one in Dortmund, supported by GRAND AVENUE from Denmark and CHRISTIAN VENUS, also a promising newcomer.

Melkweg, Amsterdam, The Netherlands 26th October 2007
Epica, Delain
A sold out Melkweg would open the doors to host two Dutch female fronted metal bands tonight. The recently rebuilt Max hall has a capacity of 1450. Epica just released their new album, The Divine Conspiracy, is touring around Europe, and will visit Mexico and Colombia next month. Delain, a young but successful new band is supporting them for a few shows. Before the opening of the doors, a long row of people were standing outside. And as usual: security had a difficult day by stopping the pushing crowd.

Röhre, Stuttgart, Germany18th October 2007
Pain, Zonaria
I must first confess that I am an absolute fan of PAIN / HYPOCRISY. They are some of my favourite bands so I was very pleased to write the review of this concert. Unfortunately, there was only one flaw; the event should take place at the Röhre in Stuttgart. The Röhre is not well known for their good sound conditions, and all the fans could only hope to get the best sound quality this evening.
