Tosso from LEAVES' EYES: "The preparations for the Beauty and the Beast Tour are in full swing and we all are looking forward to finally start the tour.
It will be very exciting for us to perform the vehemence and energy of the new songs from "Njord" for the very first time. These songs are fun to play and demand full concentration and power from the whole band. Some songs are real beasts according to the title for this tour, haha. Of course there will be well known songs in the setlist such as "Farewell Proud Men" but we also want to focus on the "Njord" songs.
Our premiere for the new show will be in a few days, on the 31.11.2009 in Triora/Italy! ELIS are old friends of us and together with SIRENIA and STREAM OF PASSION, people can expect an opulent spectacle with this tour package. Let the games begin!"

Alex from ATROCITY: "We are all looking forward to this tour, which is a great opportunity to see us performing a pure WERK 80 show. Of course there's dancers and we will be playing songs from both WERK 80 albums!
It's a real pity that Alla cannot be with us and we all wish her the best to recover as soon as possible! We also gonna meet many friends on this very interesting, international Festival package! How often do you have the opportunity to watch LEAVES' EYES, ATROCITY, SIRENIA, ELIS and STREAM OF PASSION live on stage in one single night?
So don't miss this BEAUTY & THE BEAST festival, see you on tour hopefully soon!"
