The band comments: “What took place at the O2 Forum Kentish Town in London on the 19th of January 2018 was pure magic. It was definitely a once-in-a-lifetime experience for us as a band and as people. The work involved, the pre-performance tension, the intensity on stage, the energy between us and the audience – all of this was beyond anything we’ve ever done before. This event was not just a show, it was a birthday party, an anniversary celebration and most importantly a huge THANK YOU to everyone who travelled side by side with us for the last twenty years. And now, with the release of ‘The 119 Show – Live In London’ we can also share the magic with those fans who weren’t able to party with us in January.” LACUNA COIL, July 2018
After the release the band will head out for a European tour to support the release of “The 119 Show –Live In London”.
