Finally, the much-anticipated Symphonic female-fronted Metal band from Germany, Xandria, stormed the stage. Hollan’s own
Soprano vocalist extraordinaire DIANNE VAN GIERSBERGEN, delivered a truly dynamic performance—such a pleasure for me
to witness live! The passion in this band is palpable from the very first note...and they never waned in their spirited delivery. A
treat for both the eyes and ears! Dianne never disappoints and this night was no different. Bliss!

Summing up, this was a mega fabulous evening, touting three great bands from Germany, Austria and Greece all on one stage.
It was a night of superb music and also, one where I made some new friends while chatting with some very accommodating
and approachable musicians. I could not help but notice how engaged the fans were—obviously having the time of their lives!
If I had one criticism, the lighting was not “photographer-friendly”, so to speak, but that was the only down side. All in all, a
marvelous night of Metal that I won’t soon forget!
