Avantasia de Tobias Sammet volvieron a ponernos los pelos como escarpias, firmando una actuación redonda y deshaciéndose su líder en halagos hacia sus invitados (Eric Martin, Bob Catley, un adelgazadísimo Jorn Lande y un sublime Geoff Tate, sin olvidarse de la gran Amanda Somerville y el no menos portentoso Herbie Langhans). Toda mi admiración para alguien que sabe reconocer el mérito ajeno y está dispuesto a rodearse de intérpretes de mayor calidad técnica que la propia, dejando de lado las tan habituales luchas de egos.

The Scarecrow is a concept album about the tragic story of a lonesome creature, emotionally isolated from his environment and suffering from a distorted sensory perception. His feelings for the love of his life unrequited, he sets off on a journey exploring his left-hand path, striving for inner peace, ploughing his way to approval and eventually facing temptation at the inner depths of the human soul. The story continues on the albums The Wicked Symphony and Angel of Babylon.
