    Just out of this world! Experiencing Kontos live on this tour just underlined the fact that one can play those BME songs like than him. Not even close. Seeing MH play on this tour, when Kontos took over the drums for the BME-set, you could just feel the awe in the crowd. Halfway through the opener you could see people basically picking up their jaws off the floor and looking at each other in awe. And most of these people have experienced those songs live many times before. You don't have to be a musician to appreciate the difference this man brings to the material. What a joy to experience him live and what a pity that he won't be part of the band's future releases.

    KK! King Kontos! How many I’ve watched ya when I was in my teens blasting MH videos loud in Portugal, always wondering if one day I’ll be able to replicate those drum licks! You’ve revolutionised drumming in the 90s. You have the ability to adapt extreme groves and blend them perfectly within the song. And after 30 years, and now myself also in the drum seat, I’m still amazed by your drum chops!
