Apocalypse to play show with Nazareth in Brazil

One of the biggest names in Brazilian progressive rock, APOCALYPSE played recently one of the most important shows of its entirely 25 years career. On the September 11th, the band shared the stage with the Wind Orchestra and the Choir from the city of Caxias do Sul, south of Brazil, during the event "Rock Sinfônico".

Absolute success, all the tickets were sold out five days before the show.
This was a night to remember, and some videos of the show are already on Youtube, like this one for the song "Blue Earth":
