2018 was a banner year and the 40th Anniversary for TOTO who celebrated the occasion by embarking on their longest world tour in years. The band performed for hundreds of thousands of fans across Europe and North America, as their level of global critical mass reached new heights largely fueled by a rediscovery of favorites from their beloved repertoire. This live performance was filmed in front of a sold-out crowd exceeding 18,000 fans on March 17, 2018 at the Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam. TOTO performed a wide range of songs, including hit singles, rarely performed live deep cuts, and two recently recorded tracks which appeared on their new Greatest Hits album (40 Trips Around The Sun).

Created in 1977, the legendary group broke up in 2008 after twelve studio albums. This year, the musicians released their first studio album in 9 years, titled Toto XIV. However, the group had already resumed touring for a few years. The albums Toto and Toto IV, and the single Rosanna won six Grammy Awards. In 1982, the group’s flagship year, Rosanna came second in the US charts and Africa even took first place. Their hits continue to air regularly on the radio and are still popular with the public. Guitarist and singer Steve Lukather is the only Toto member present since the band's inception. He is surrounded by 13 permanent musicians and 31 others recruited specifically for the tours. During the 2015 edition of Baloise, Toto, at his best, performed classics such as Hold The Line, Rosanna or Africa, but also extracts from his new album.

The individual band members have played on many of the best known and most successful records in history but when they come together as Toto they create music that is uniquely special. This is Toto at their very best.
