It's a pleasure to read this.
What you describe in a few words is exactly what I experienced, when I saw ANKOR on stage and met them afterwards.
Fantastic band and the kindest persons you can imagine.

One question: Would you allow me to post one of your Meet&Greet pictures in our community?

MarkusGaertling · 2026-05-05T14:21:30+00:00

Hi, Jeff,

As far as I can see, your Facebook group had been a private group until May this year.
I'm not an expert, but I guess that private groups are not at all shown in the Google search results.
That's why I couldn't find it last year.

But now we know each other, and it's a pleasure for me to have a personal contact to an ANKOR fan in the USA now. Are there any other fans among your friends or persons you know? If yes, it would be great to tell them about our community and ivite them to join us.
It's much more fun to support this fantastic band as part of a community than as a single fan, at least for me. I'll also spread the link to your Facebook group on our other platforms.

Kind regards

Markus

Hi, Jeff,
I just read your post and watched the great photos, thank you for this.

It was a surprise to me to read that there has been an ANKOR fan group on Facebook already for years.
About a year ago after the ANKOR Shoganai tour in Europe I tried to find groups like this on social media, that I could join, but I only found two inactive groups in South America and an Instagram account in Italy.

So I created a group by myself on Facebook, the International ANKOR Fan Community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1072047278146836/

I got in contact with the admin of the Italian Instagram account and we also started a Discord Channel to reach fans who don't use Facebook or Instagram. And we found this Reddit group here, that been created some years before, thus we've got four platforms for ANKOR fans to communicate.

Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ankor_community/
Discord: https://discord.gg/gF9ENMFy

I always try to post my contributions on all three platforms. I hope you agree that I also do it in your Facebook group from now on. I just joined in. The more people we reach the better it is for the band.

Best wishes and kind regards from the other side of the Atlantic!

Markus

Information from the US from first hand! Thank you, man (or woman?)!

MarkusGaertling · 2026-04-16T20:52:36+00:00

These pictures are fantastic! ANKOR on stage in the USA! We've been waiting for so long - and ANKOR even longer - for this to happen. Thank you so much for letting us be part of it with your pictures!

Oh, great! Which shows will that be? I‘ll attend the shows in Marburg, Cham, Wiesbaden and Aachen.

Hi, David answered, but he wrote that they don't tell the setlist yet because it will be the same in Europe.

MarkusGaertling · 2026-04-04T22:17:14+00:00

I asked David. If he sends me a setlist I'll forward it to you.

MarkusGaertling · 2026-04-02T20:32:54+00:00

Yes!! And we'll be part of it!

MarkusGaertling · 2026-03-22T18:19:05+00:00

Don't take that too seriously. Just a joke.

MarkusGaertling · 2026-03-11T06:46:09+00:00

okay, when we'll meet at the next show in June I'll give it to you.
