PRESS RELEASE MASCOT LABEL GROUP/MUSIC THEORIES RECORDINGS
AYREON ‘INTO THE ELECTRIC CASTLE - a Space Opera’ LIVE ON STAGE
Arjen Lucassen announces 4 shows at the 013 venue in Tilburg in September 2019
After 3 sold out Ayreon Universe shows at the 013 venue in The Netherlands in 2017 and headlining the Marquee stage of Graspop Metal Meeting 2018 in Belgium, Ayreon is poised to add another exciting chapter to its live history. The album ‘Into the Electric Castle’, originally released in 1998, has made a big impact in the progressive and symphonic rock/metal scene and is considered by many to be a classic album in the genre. To celebrate the album's 20th anniversary it's been completely re-mixed, re-mastered and re-released with exclusive limited edition packaging. The re-release of this classic album makes this the perfect moment to create a live show around Into the Electric Castle.
Click below to see what Arjen has to say about the upcoming live shows.
Ayreon mastermind Arjen Lucassen and keyboardist Joost van den Broek have gathered nearly the entire original cast of Into the Electric Castle and several special guests to perform Ayreon’s ‘space opera’ in its entirety as a live show. Visitors can expect a massive, state-of-the-art live production with a unique decor, visuals and stage effects. While the 2017 ’Ayreon Universe’ show was a bombastic, full-tilt rock show, musically the ‘Into the Electric Castle’ show will be more dynamic, atmospheric and versatile, translating the original album in the most authentic way possible.Besides playing the entire album with original cast members, there will be much more to make this show a unique special occasion that Ayreon fans will not want to miss. Additional info and extra surprises will be announced in the upcoming weeks!
“The Ayreon Universe shows were such a fantastic experience for everyone involved, and I've had loads of requests for more live shows, so we have decided to perform the entire Electric Castle album live in 2019, again in the venue 013!" says Arjen. "Because it’s the 20^th anniversary of the album and it’s just been re-mixed and re-released, we figured this is the perfect moment to do this."
Alongside Arjen Lucassen himself, who will be singing his original album role of ‘the Hippie’, there will be 22 singers and instrumentalists sharing the stage:
Original cast: Fish (ex-Marillion), Anneke van Giersbergen (VUUR), Damian Wilson, Thijs van Leer (Focus), Ed Warby (Ayreon)[DEL: ,
EL] Edward Reekers (ex-Kayak), Edwin Balogh, George Oosthoek (ex-Orphanage).
Special guests: Simone Simons (Epica), Mark Jansen (Mayan), John Jaycee Cuijpers (Praying Mantis), Marcela Bovio (Mayan), Dianne van Giersbergen (Ex Libris), Jan Willem Ketelaars…plus an extra special guest ‘to be announced’.
Instrumentalists: Johan van Stratum (VUUR), Joost van den Broek, Marcel Singor (Kayak), Ferry Duijsens (VUUR), Bob Wijtsma (Ex Libris), Ben Mathot.
“It’s a huge challenge, both with respect to the music and the production”, says lead producer Joost van den Broek, “but with the experience we’ve gathered by doing the Universe and festival shows and the amazing team we have, I’m sure we’re ready to take this next step in bringing ‘Into the Electric Castle’ to the stage. We are aiming for the most authentic and very detailed translation of the entire album, staying true to the original vibe, dynamics and sound, plus adding some extras here and there. It will be a big pleasure to share the stage with all these excellent musicians, playing this classic prog-rock opus live for Ayreon's fans!”

Dit is goed nieuws. Niet mijn favoriete Ayreon Album. Maar ik ga zeker kijken
14 SHADES OF GREY
Nothing is black or white. Nothing is wrong or right. But everything is 14 shades of grey.

Naar Ayreon universe ben ik niet geweest, dacht wel beetje genoeg te hebben gehoord...
Maar ItEC is wel..
Ik ga zeker kaarten kopen.

Dan is het al uitverkocht. Zaterdag is al uitverkocht. Morgen gaan de tickets voor de Ayreon fanclub in de verkoop.quote:Op woensdag 24 oktober 2018 18:42 schreef Meridiaan het volgende:

Beetje raar als het al uitverkocht is als de reguliere verkoop begint, toch?quote:

wie het album had gepreordered kreeg een code om vandaag al te bestellen. Leden van de mailinglist mogen vanaf morgen. en vrijdag het overige publiek.

Nee zie antwoord van Tokus. Overigens was dit bij zowel bij de Theater Equation als de Ayreon Universe het geval. Dat mensen die op de Ayreon maillijst staan eerder kaarten konden kopen dan in de officiële voorverkoop. Vandaar ook mijn reactie. Ik acht de kans klein dat er vrijdag nog kaarten zijn. Als er nu al tenminste 1 show is uitverkochtquote:Op woensdag 24 oktober 2018 19:27 schreef Meridiaan het volgende:

Zaterdag al uitverkocht? Jeetje, moet ik even denken wanneer ik wil.

Ik heb gelukkig kaarten weten te bemachtigen voor de vrijdag. Ik had ook al wel verwacht dat de zaterdag uitverkocht zou zijn. Geslaagde marketing operatie weer.
Ik heb kaartjes voor de vrijdag!! 
Bizar dat de zaterdag al uitverkocht was idd, denk dat die max van 20 kaartjes pp ook een beetje te hoog is.
