Some thoughts from Heidelberg

From Dean;
 
"I can honestly say that I've never had a gig experience like the one we've just had. The setting was stunning, the sound crystal clear and superb, the bands were brilliant and the audience were something else entirely.
 
I can probably speak for the other bands at Prog the Castle, and I can definitely speak for the guys in Anubis when I say that the audience at Prog the Castle was the best we've ever played to. I've never felt so much warmth, enthusiasm and joy from an audience, it's a feeling I won't forget easily.
 
Big thanks to Brian and Ella for organising such a great event. I hope Prog the Castle will happen again, it's too good not to."


 
From Steve;
 
"Prog The Castle is one of the greatest things I've done, a marvellous festival, in an absolutely stunning venue, a great way to kick off our dates in Europe."


 
From Dave
 
"A beautiful, enchanting space that seemed a perfect backdrop to Anubis' first show outside of Australia.

Stepping out onto the stage at midnight, the band was welcomed with a wave of love and warmth never before experienced, as people who had lived their lives to the soundtrack of our music finally got to hear us play it for them in person.

I can't express the feeling in words, as all of our most powerful musical moments, some perhaps less suited to Australian stages, were dispatched with enthusiasm and a renewed vigor, despite our relative jetlag.

Songs from all three albums seamlessly combining into set that best represented the most grandiose and epic side of Anubis.

I am proud of the music we created, proud of my bandmates, and hugely proud of the legacy we have and most of all, I'm massively proud of the memories we created for ourselves and for our fans.

I will leave a piece of my heart in Heidelberg forever. Germany had promised us so much and delivered even more. I will never forget that night and how it felt, and how that audience felt to immerse myself in.

The rest of the tour has so much to live up to."
