EPICA’s guitar player Isaac Delahaye has the following to say about the tour "Damn, this has been a great tour once again! More and more bands are going to this beautiful part of the world and we all understand why: some of the most enthusiastic and passionate metalheads can be found in South America. We've been overwhelmed by the warm welcome, the great weather, the gifts, the hospitality, the food, the cheering and the support from the crowds, etc. Thanks for all of that and for charging our batteries to keep the whole circus going! See you all next time!"
In Sao Paulo the band was joined in by Bruno Zuppone from VTV Filmes. He followed the band during the entire day and created an awesome aftermovie.. The video can be viewed here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zKZ4dJgdS4
