Recent tour reviews

I was very surprised that the concert was not canceled or even postponed following all the security measures taken in France and in most of the European countries, concerning the Coronavirus! Being a person considered at risk, I did not want to go to this Saga show, which I have been looking forward to for months. Too many risks! not Not only did I deprive myself of the concert of my favorite group and in addition I lost the price of my ticket, more than 100 €. this is the very disappointing experience that I lived for this Saga show...

Best regards

I have loved this band since I was 12 years old. Unfortunately I never heard them on the radio in the NY area after 1983!! In 2017 I got my passport and drove to CANADA .. by myself to meet them and see my first Saga concert. Just this year alone I have gone back to Canada, NJ and earlier this month- PUNTA CANA!! Last year was Puerto RICO , 2018 was cruise to the edge.. I can hardly wait for CTTE2020. I will always love these guys and this band.. wusb.fm NY/ WAXX TRAXX TO THE MAXX..

SIX BY SIX Feat. SAXON, SAGA Members Announce "The Beyond Shadowland Tour 2024"; New Album Out Now

April 26, 2024, 4 days ago

news hard rock heavy metal six by six

Today, SiX By SiX, the progressive power trio comprising Ian Crichton (Saga), Nigel Glockler (Saxon) and Robert Berry (3.2), release their sophomore album, Beyond Shadowland, via InsideOutMusic. To celebrate, they also announce their first ever live dates.

The band will play three shows in Germany and the Netherlands in the second half of September, prior to appearing at the renowned ProgStock festival in the US in October.

Robert Berry says: “I cannot wait to step out on stage for the first time with Ian and Nigel. Having come together as a band originally in 2020, we have made two albums and in the process spent plenty of time together in my studio in northern California. But until now the diaries have never quite aligned for us to be able to play live. I’m hoping that these shows will be the first of many in the coming years.”

Ian Crichton adds: “Over the years I have been a regular visitor to Europe playing numerous shows with Saga and always enjoy playing to appreciative European fans. I am really excited about the prospect of SiX By SiX performing live. We’ve got enormous potential as a live band and the format of a trio really gives me the chance to stretch out on the guitar – and I fully intend to make the most of the opportunity!”

Nigel Glockler comments: “From the day I joined Robert and Ian in SiX By SiX, we were all absolutely united in wanting this to be a proper band that gets out on the road rather than just another studio project. I’m delighted that we’re now making it happen with this short run of dates and am looking forward to getting close up with fans in some smaller venues and establishing SiX By SiX as a live band.”

Dates:   September 17 - Colos-Saal - Aschaffenburg, Germany 18 - De Cacaofabriek - Helmond, Netherlands 19 - Boerderij Cultuurpodium - Zoetermeer, Netherlands

October 20 – ProgStock Festival, Rivoli Theater, Williams Center - Rutherford, NJ

Tickets are on sale now and can be found here .

For Beyond Shadowland the band reconvened in Berry’s own Soundtek Studios in the San Francisco Bay Area in 2023 to bend, shape, hammer and caress their diverse musical talents into 11 impressive new tracks.  With this album, they continue to define and build upon their unique melodic space, welding guitar-driven rock, metal and prog into a unique and powerful sonic setting.

Beyond Shadowland is available as a Limited CD Digipak, Gatefold 180g Black 2LP (featuring 4 exclusive bonus tracks) and as a Digital Album. Order here .

The artwork was once again created by Rob Fowler.

“Wren” “The Arms Of A Word” “Can’t Live Like This” “Obiliex” “Only You Can Decide” “Titans” “Outside Looking In” “Spectre” “Sympathise” “One Step” “The Mission”

Highland Light reopens to public after renovation: What to know about the Truro lighthouse

Highland Light in Truro is looking pretty spiffy these days.

According to the Cape Cod National Seashore , the legendary lighthouse has a new breathable coating, and masonry has been repaired, part of a recent renovation project that will be celebrated at a rededication ceremony at 10 a.m. on May 3.

The renovation project was launched after a National Park Service historic architecture team determined that a ventilation issue was accelerating deterioration of the structure, including exterior cracks and corrosion.

The ventilation issue stemmed from the application of a cement-like material to fill in air spaces and stabilize the lighthouse during its move back from an eroding cliff in 1996 , according to the Seashore. This cement filling, along with non-breathable coatings applied to the lighthouse over the years, reduced venting and allowed excessive moisture to build up.

With the Highland Light's seasonal tours also set to launch on May 3, we thought we'd take a look at the popular beacon's history.

When was Highland Light built?

According to the Highland Light website (highlandlighthouse.org), there have been three towers at the Highland Light site over the years. The first version, a 45-foot-tall wooden tower, was established in 1797. In 1831, a new brick lighthouse was built. The 66-foot-tall brick tower that we see today was built in 1857, along with a keeper's house and generator shed.

Why was Highland Light moved in 1996?

While Highland Light was once located at a comfortable distance from the Atlantic-facing cliffs, erosion kept carving away at the margin. According to the National Park Service, "Erosion of the steep cliff throughout the years brought the present light station around 100 feet from the cliff's edge by the early 1990s."

The Truro Historical Society raised funds to move the lighthouse, buoyed by federal and state grants. In 1996, the lighthouse was moved 450 feet inland, according to the National Park Service

Here's how the Truro Historical Society described the moving operation:

"Using hydraulic jacks, the entire structure was lifted, mounted on rollers and set on rails. Thousands of visitors gathered to watch the move, which took place over eighteen days. During the move, workers placed quarters on the beams. The whole process went so slowly that you could only tell that the lighthouse was moving by watching the coins on the rails."

Have any celebrities stayed at Highland Light?

Literary superstar Henry David Thoreau stayed at Highland Light twice while visiting the Cape and wrote about the experience in his book " Cape Cod ," according to Cape Cod National Seashore historian William Burke.

It seems like Thoreau took full advantage of his unusual lodgings, according to this passage from "Cape Cod": "As we were going to spend the night in a light-house, we wished to make the most of so novel an experience, and therefore told our host that we would like to accompany him when he went to light up. At rather early candle-light he lighted a small Japan lamp, allowing it to smoke rather more than we like on ordinary occasions, and told us to follow him."

How can I tour Highland Light?

Tours will run daily from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. from May 3 through Oct. 31. The last tour of the day starts at 4:30 p.m. In addition to the tour, the Highland Light keeper's shop offers an assortment of interesting items for sale.

There is a tour charge: $8 for adults, $5 for students and $7 for seniors and military members. Children must be at least 48" tall to climb the lighthouse because of the stairs and ladders. For more information, visit the Highland Light website.

Eric Williams, when not solving Curious Cape Cod mysteries, writes about a variety of ways to enjoy the Cape, the weather, wildlife and other subjects. Contact him at  [email protected] . Follow him on X: @capecast.

Moscow Metro

The Moscow Metro Tour is included in most guided tours’ itineraries. Opened in 1935, under Stalin’s regime, the metro was not only meant to solve transport problems, but also was hailed as “a people’s palace”. Every station you will see during your Moscow metro tour looks like a palace room. There are bright paintings, mosaics, stained glass, bronze statues… Our Moscow metro tour includes the most impressive stations best architects and designers worked at - Ploshchad Revolutsii, Mayakovskaya, Komsomolskaya, Kievskaya, Novoslobodskaya and some others.

What is the kremlin in russia?

The guide will not only help you navigate the metro, but will also provide you with fascinating background tales for the images you see and a history of each station.

And there some stories to be told during the Moscow metro tour! The deepest station - Park Pobedy - is 84 metres under the ground with the world longest escalator of 140 meters. Parts of the so-called Metro-2, a secret strategic system of underground tunnels, was used for its construction.

During the Second World War the metro itself became a strategic asset: it was turned into the city's biggest bomb-shelter and one of the stations even became a library. 217 children were born here in 1941-1942! The metro is the most effective means of transport in the capital.

There are almost 200 stations 196 at the moment and trains run every 90 seconds! The guide of your Moscow metro tour can explain to you how to buy tickets and find your way if you plan to get around by yourself.
