Ladies and gentlemen! And children of all ages!

Welcome to the opera house of heavy metal!

Tonight we have the pleasure of bringing to the stage the performance of Illusions of Grandeur. On this night Illusions of Grandeur will do a presentation for you that will impress and entertain you. They will take you to the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. Trust and betrayal, love and disenchantment, frustration and redemption, and all the human emotions will be experienced on this night.

Now, friends, the musicianship is perfectionist, ha! This music is filled with drama and expressed in the form of loud heavy metal, ah, yes, and your heart will live the drama of Illusions of Grandeur and your ears will remind you tomorrow morning of the volume of this theatre. They have many tales to tell you, and we can’t wait for you to hear how this drama will unfold in your imagination as you give meaning to what you see with your inner eye and what you hear with your ears.

The singing is prototypical heavy metal with lots of high notes and ear-piercing screams. It’s not going to be mellow and smooth but rather intense and exciting. The wallpaper might start to peel off tonight, friends, ha! The voice sings to tell you the stories that will guide you through the drama of theatrical progressive heavy metal.

Well, now that you know who tonight’s performers are, you may have some trepidation. Friends, do not panic! Do not worry! These musicians know what they are doing and they will make sure to easy your troubled mind. You will experience joy, fury, sadness, and all the emotions that a human being could ever hope for, but enjoy this wonderful ride into progressive dramatic music and everything that it will reveal to you tonight. Ready or not, aha ha ha, you are going to remember this ride!

Well, let’s begin! facebook.com/IllusionsOG/
