As the name of this review already mentions it, the Evenfall Winter European Tour stopped in Budapest on March the 2nd. The 2 two bands touring together were Wolcensmen (UK) and Grift (Sweden), both artists presenting a solo acoustic performance. No opening acts, only 2 guys and their guitars. I have to admit that I... Continue Reading →
