2010

Big thanks to all visitors, helping hands and bands - and last but no least: God - for another unforgetable festival! Next year EoR will take place from march 4th to 6th. Reserve the date!

Presale is over, but there are like usual still tickets at the box office available.

Now there are day tickets availabe under the menue "Tickets" since the running order is official now: The bands for friday are Escape from Sickness, Timesword, Back Pocket Prophet, HB, Mad Max und Slechtvalk. Saturday: Kriegerreich, T-Rage, Doomenicus, Sacrificum, In Vain, X-Sinner and World to Ashes (see Line-up/Running Order Eor 2010). See you at the venue!

With a very heavy heart Jim Laverde had to cancel his engagement in the EoR worship band because of unchangeable circumstances in his business. Jim attended every EoR up to now... We will miss him very much.
Instead of Jim and his american-swiss band Marcel Bürgi, singer of the hardrock band Silence Lost, will lead worship solo in the EoR services: just vocals and guitar/piano - raw and without makeup. We look forward very much to this new experience!

supported by the two melodic acts HB and T-Rage the line-up of the next EoR is complete so far:

HB (FIN), Symphonic Metal
Tight riff, female vocals and bombastic arrangements. This is the popular sound which HB from the finnish north stands for. The Band around singer Johanna Altonen has released already three albums in Finnish, one of them also in a English version. The Swiss Premiere of HB at the Solidfestival left the big audience in awe – altough it was late night and it was at a festival which is centred on Rock & Pop. Now HB can top it at Elements of Rock in front of a real metal audience.

T-Rage (CH), Hardrock / Melodic Metal
From the Swiss Capital and its mountainous back-country T-Rage storms to Elements of Rock to present itsself as an insider tip to a broad audience. T-Rage don't care for genres and just play what they love: from Glam Rock to gothic flavoured Metal. A melodic delicacy is garanteed when a man (Thomas Winkler, Emerald) and a women (Janine Hulliger, Fragment of Symmetry) share the stage.

This year too there will be an optional but eclectic day program at EoR: services, seminars and a musicians meeting. For the first time we have a prayer room which is open for you all around the clock. You find the info about the day program under the menue 'Information/Program'.

Although there will be some additional bands it is time to make tickets available: from now on you can buy festival tickets for 68.-- CHF on the website. Till the end of January there is the opportunity of a specialpackage: festival ticket and an exklusive EoR-Preview-T-Shirt for only 85.-- CHF (shipping incl.). Grab it!
