HEAVENS GATE – livin’ in hysteria @Rock Hard Greece (Technopolis Athens 13/9/2025)

HEAVENS GATE is a power metal band from Germany, formed in 1987.
Seeing them live was a dream came true thanks to Rock Hard Festival that took place in Athens, Greece, on September 13, 2025.

Sascha Paeth was on stage for sixty minutes with two different bands, first with his current band, MASTERS OF CEREMONY and then with Heavens Gate.

This exclusive Heavens Gate show had Sascha Paeth (guitar), Bonny Bilski (guitar), Thorsten Müller (drums) and Robert Hunecke (bass). Yes, Thomas Rettke wasn’t there but all the fans were super excited anyway, don’t forget that they are not an active band since 1999, so this was a great gift for us and we were happy enough to listen live some legendary tunes after so many years.

On vocals was Herbie Langhans (Firewind, Aina, Avantasia etc) while on the last two songs he got help from Adrienne Cowan (Masters Of Ceremony, Seven Spires, Avantasia etc).

Heavens Gate setlist:
In Control / We Got The Time / Path Of Glory / Gate of Heaven / Livin In Hysteria / Can’t Stop Rockin’
