Agent Steel Checks In From Belgium

Speed metal veterans Agent Steel are currently out on the road in Europe playing a series of shows. A message from the band reads as follows: "Greetings from Belgium!!!

"Here's a quick update... Agent Steel will be performing tonite (Monday, August 10th) at a place called Metro in Warschoot, Belgium, technically our day off BUT we were invited to add a special show with support from the Belgium band AFTER ALL.

"Here's a quick recap so far on the first 3 shows: Our warm up gig at the Dokk'em Indoor event went well; great sound at the Podium Romein. The Alcatraz Metal Festival in Deinze Belgium was SO FUCKIN METAL!!!! We went right after ONSLAUGHT and another great band called THE DIFFERENCE and the sound was amazing (thanks to Luc - F.O.H.). We had a few technnical problems on our end with broken guitar strings, but overall it was so kick ass indeed!!!

"Opening song was 'Fashioned From Dust' from Alienigma, and we also included songs like 'Forever Black' and ended the set with 'Mad Locust Rising'. HELSTAR, TESTAMENT and SAXON all delivered great live sets as well.

"Last nite we performed in Rotterdam at a place called Baroeg with support coming from The Difference and KILLER; great sound again (thanks to Luc) and we played songs like 'Insurrection', 'Human Bullet' from Order OF The Illuminati that we hardly ever include on the live set. We finished our one hour set with 'Know Your Master' from Omega Conspiracy.

"Up next is Hamburg on Tuesday, Copenhagen, Denmark on Wednesday, and Oslo, Norway on Thursday!!! We will finish our European run at the Jalometalli Festival in Oulu, Finland this upcoming Saturday."
