SAVATAGE Members To Perform Entire 'The Wake Of Magellan' Album At WACKEN OPEN AIR - Nov. 30, 2011

CIRCLE II CIRCLE, the band formed by ex-SAVATAGE frontman Zak Stevens, has been confirmed for next year's edition of the Wacken Open Air festival, set to take place August 2-4, 2012 in Wacken, Germany. The group will be joined at the event by special guest guitarist Chris Caffery (SAVATAGE, TRANS-SIBERIAN ORCHESTRA) for a special performance of the classic 1997 SAVATAGE album "The Wake Of Magellan" (which featured both Stevens and Caffery) in its entirety.

CIRCLE II CIRCLE's current lineup consists of Zak Stevens (vocals), Rollie Feldmann (guitar), Mitch Stewart (bass/keyboards) and drummer Johnny Osborn, formerly of DR. BUTCHER.

I NEED to go to Wacken one of these days!

Wow, that sounds like a cool show!

The chorus to "Paragons of Innocence" has the exact same vocal melody as Bobby Brown's "Humpin' Around".

I missed Savatage's tour for this album cuz when on the day they played @ the Birch Hill in New Jersey, I had to be the best man in my friend's wedding. I don't think I have ever quite forgiven my friend for that.

I am not sure I really want to know WHY you know that.

I'll be there! Although the lineup is somewhat disappointing thus far, I am going for the first time, and hopefully not the last!

Unfortunately I don't have this Savatage album yet, but I really like two of the three I do have and I'll have to buy it before I go.

Damn Europeans, they get all the good stuff.

My favourite 'Tage album! I cannot go though. They should get Jon, too, and release the show on DVD.

Anyone else find the choice of albums a bit odd, considering it's probably the one with the most Jon-sung parts out of the four Zak did with the band?

The day is still young, Jon may show up ?

Chris can sing those parts.
