France, Toulouse - Rhapsody Of Fire: 20th Anniversary Farewell Tour 2018 - Europe

That was one hell of a fantastic show. Forget about openers (is Scarlet Aura's name really a pun?) (and believe me, Beast In Black are a studio band, not a live one - unless you like lots of samples of singing), the golden-aura line-up of Rhapsody (without Alex Staropoli, obviously) was the real treat. Everyone was here for them after all...
And I guess we all suddenly lost almost twenty years during the 1h45 show. Everyone sang along, the band was totally happy, the setlist was great (yep, the most recent songs harked back to 2002 and Power Of The Dragonflame), playing - ang OMG singing - were top-notch. I really thought I was my old role-playing-student self again...

I just saw them on the 70K cruise also. It was great to see Fabio and Luca together on stage

It was my first time seeing the band live, and well it was a blast!

I bet. i have seen all versions of Rhapsody before and to be honest, right now I like Luca's version the best (other than the original one of course)

That's not surprising I suppose. I heard that the last times with Staropoli were all professional but no smiles or good mood whatsoever,... But this time all were obvious smiling, having fun and genuinely happy to play together (the audience was singing all along, that helped too I guess)
