Motto
Apart from Ever Forward, a tour name which developed out of discussions among the fanbase, Come Feel The Arms Around You, a line from the song Arms, was the motto of this tour. The latter is also mentioned on the official tour t-shirts, see "Merchandise", and is was used as the subtitle for the video compilation MMXIV - First Round (DVD), which features a series of audience video recordings from the concerts in May 2014. A similar DVD from the second part of the tour in July is not known to exist.
Recordings
Many of the above gigs were recorded. These are marked with ***. Clicking on these asterisks will get you to the according infopage and coverart for the audio recording.
- The recording from Sonisphere 2014 does exist in the format of a compilation video only and there is no page for this one.
- The Glasgow gig can be found in audio (2 versions) and video format. Both, however without any coverart and infopage.
- And for the Hamburg concert, too, no coverart or page has been created so far.
- The concert in Vienna resulted in an additional fanbase-produced DVD and even a 2LP live-bootleg released in 2018.
- Esch-sur-Alzette can be found on DVD only.
- In addition, a video compilation from the first round of gigs was created, see MMXIV - First Round (DVD).
All of these recordings are in circulation among the fanbase, except the bootleg LP of course. A few more recordings might exist, but these are beyond our knowing.
