I've seen Delaine many times and they were exceptional last night. It is a lovely venue, close to the centre of Haalem and a short walk from the railway station. The crowd were very supportive and at times Charlotte was reduced to tears she was so overwhelmed.
Patronaat Haarlem, NetherlandsFirst time I have ever seen delain in concert and they were absolutely fabulous! Extra points for drummer Joey getting in to Vancouver for the end of the concert nice and safe and sound! Absolutely wonderful band I will definitely come and see you again!
Venue Nightclub Vancouver, CanadaThis was a great show! An intimate venue with no bad spots. It was a blast! Both Visions of Atlantis and Delain put on great shoes. I like that they used a local band to open for them as well. Great time!
Bluebird Theater Denver, COBoth Delain and Xandria put on a great show. My only quibble is that it was hard to tell when doors opened vs. when the show started from the ads. A bit more info (including info on the opening band/bands) always helps.
Metro Music Hall Salt Lake City, UTDynamic show, I’am shure you new that, I’m 67 years old and wished I could have a band or show as powerful as yours . I hope to see and hear more from you in the future!!
