The first third of the Mexico tour is done ! The setlist in Toluca was the same as in Chihuahua, except the band played Victims of Contingency. In Mexico City, the order of the songs was changed and for the first time in 2022, the last song was Consign to Oblivion (instead of Design Your Universe). For the show in Toluca, Simone wore a lovely new black dress (I really love the sleeves) and for the show in Mexico, she wore her famous outfit from Ωmega Alive, Area 53, Yunak Stadium and 3-Majówkę. Jens de Vos (Panda Productions director) is travelling with the band and shares lots of pictures, photoshoots and videos on his instagram account, so be sure to follow him !

Before Epica’s show in Bulgaria last week, Simone and Mark were interviewed by BTV. I added the video to our media center. Be aware that Simone and Mark’s answers are quite difficult to hear because of translator’s voice.

Epica is back (and so is this website after a well-deserved break) ! The band played 2 shows in Europe this week before the upcoming tour in Mexico. Simone wore the same dress for both show (it’s the same dress she wore for the last part of Ωmega Alive and at Area 53 in 2021). The band also added Code of Life to the setlist ! The setlist was the same for both nights except the band didn’t play Kingdom of Heaven Pt. 3 in Wroclaw.

It feels so good to see the band back on stage ! Am I the only one who missed them ?
