Michael Kiske (Avantasia) "I'll go on tour again, maybe next year"

Michael Kiske (ex-Helloween), famous for his awesome voice and thoughts about the heavy-metal scene, recently was interviwed by Promised Land - Avantasia's Fan Club, talking about Tobias's project, his solo career and his hobbies. One of the most interesting points is his speech that maybe he will go on tour again next year (after 15 years away from the stage).

Promised Land: In May your new solo career album will be (was) released. How did you feel recording YOUR Helloween's songs? Did you miss (at least a bit) that time?

Michael Kiske: "I had big doubts in the first moment, but I am very happy that I did it and made those songs mine again. It was very important. I miss the first three years with Kai Hansen; that's (I personally think) when we were functioning as a band. The last four years were a nightmare for me because of Mr. Weikath's mobbing. After Kai's leaving nothing worked anymore. The chemistry was destroyed. I am sure Helloween function much better now. I simply don't fit among Weikath's people."

Promised Land: Have you ever considered going on tour with your solo career (playing only the songs you recorded after leaving Helloween)? Don't you miss the sensation you feel when you are on the stage? (It's another question that I guess people ask you all the time)

Michael Kiske: "I will do that again; I have to because you never reach new audiences without it. Maybe next year."
