The First Challenge: update!
As you will know by now, something very special is going to happen on August 12th! On that day, we will be playing in Ulft (NL), our first big solo-show in years! We can't reveal too much of our plans at this early stage, but our setlist is going to be a unique one as we shall play the full Unforgiving album - and the story will come to life on stage with the new design of the stage, lights, video footage and illusions, etc. We call this event The First Challenge as it's the biggest show we've done in years and with everything that goes with this type of show, a challenge it certainly is. You can also follow Sharon with challenges of her own, such as getting back into shape and checking out new clothing and make-up. View the first report here.
