AB sold out three times in 49 minutes

Exactly 49 minutes, more time the Belgian band Channel Zero didn't no need to sell all tickets for their three reunion concerts in the Ab.  An absolute record that astonishes our most popular metal band ever.  "On the auction site Ebay, tickets go over 130€", "We'd never expected this", said frontman Franky De Smet-Van Damme. "We think about adding more concerts to our reunion list."

Ice TMid-1995 things suddenly went fast for Channel Zero.  The band could replace Live at Werchter and was noticed there by Body Count.  Ice-T immediately offered them a place as openings act for his European tour.  Late '97, the group stopped at its peak.  But their popularity today seems hardly to have shrinked.  "Frankly we had hoped to have one sold out concert at the AB."  "That there's three concerts sold out now, is unbelievable.", says vocalist Franky.  "The most sensational thing is that since this happened, I still receive requests by people who couldn't buy a ticket, and absolutely want to see us."  "To disappoint no one, we don't exclude additional concerts."  For the fans: guitarist Xavier Carion will no longer be on stage.  He had to deal with an ear trauma and can't support the sound on stage anymore.
