finally good support act for Maiden!
my friend saw Masterplan last month in Slovakia and Kai told him that HE WANTED to do a support act for Maiden and they will be only playing show for them in Slovakia.. I thought Sanctuary told them to do a support act, but my friend was speaking with Kai definitely so its bit twisted.. now theyre playing several shows with them. Iam lucky, i will see them also in Prague..
