"UDO Dirkschneider. "Original frontman of the legendary Accept, and it's a dream coming true for us to have "The Voice of Metal" join us on stage. Many U.D.O and Accept albums lies close to the heart of Sabaton and they are often played in our tourbus. "Chris Boltendahl.

"We have just done a tour where Fred temporary replaced our own Rikard. It was great to share stage with this guy who normally plays bass in the masters of speed guitar heroes Dragonforce. After the tour we did not want it to stop, so we simply had to end it on a special place. "Falun... be prepared for a triple guitar attack! "Van Canto. As "Sabaton's music features a lot of vocal harmonies and big choruses we believe that this addition will make this concert EVEN MORE powerful.
