20.DEZ.2012 – Christmas and New Year’s message from Hangar family!
“Again, we were caught by surprise by our love and solidarity. The events of 2012 have taught us a lot. This time we see the love and respect of people who want to build something real and have the courage to move forward in its mission, in his grace, which was given by our Creator. Special thanks to all who believe that anything in this life is worth. It is for you that our flame remains lit. There was nothing that we use a candle in our latest release … That flame never goes out! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! We are full of plans to share with all of you, our faithful squires! ”
Aquiles Priester
“Another year has passed. Filled with changes and news. Filled with hopes and motivations extras. Bliss could find people who support us and never leave us. True friends return to take their places, and plant the seed for the future together with us. May Christmas and 2013 come with the hope of renewal and realization of dreams and achievements that always divide with those who make up our family in our sites, social networking, workshops and concerts. Dream and share what’s better: Life. Merry Christmas and a great 2013. ”
Nando Mello
“I remembered a great story, of which there is no confirmation as well as a story in second person. And one day, in one way or another, for some reason, all human ball blue celebrate 2012 years ago. Celebrate this date, whether Jewish, Atheist, Muslim, Zen or even Christian! Celebrate with gifts, coca cola, mineral water, sushi, natural food or even turkey! Celebrate with a real family, the one, the forgotten or that you forgot. Well that is all true vai, vai who really minds evolve to the level of Santo and return to tell the Father and the Son. Vai that of animals eating each other can and should progress to the level of that man who said that we are beings of light, and meat only transitory and sacred abode of evolution. John Lennon, Gandhi, Buddha, Martin Luther King, Chico Xavier, Kennedy, Mother Teresa, Socrates, Jesus … Some might see walking around here. And even kill them to be quiet soon. Other just heard. Speaking at one point that stood out and actively in mission, vigorously and tirelessly, and apparently inconvenient for some. For many this short list were murdered. A mission is not clear to others, but guided by some precepts old-fashioned and naive: Truth, Solidarity, Justice, Rationality … A giant list that has an acronym fool on earth:
Love, which comes and calms. Contrary to hate.
Happy Love ”
Eduardo Martinez
“Just a line to say that I’m alive and living the life that God asked. Feliz 2013!”
Fabio Laguna
“So this is Christmas … The period of reflection and gratitude! In 2012 sang, screamed, jumped, cried, I met old friends, made new … Anyway … I celebrated life!’m Very grateful for it all! Desire everyone, especially the family Hangar, because were part of this, a Merry Christmas, a great New Year and the coming of 2013! ”
Michael Polchowicz
“The year 2012 was really special to me. After 13 years I could play again with big brothers that make up this family called Hangar. We did several shows in celebration of 15 years of banda and never forget those moments. I wish good health, love and music for all of you this Christmas. ”
Cristiano Wortmann
“I would like to wish you a Merry Christmas and a New Year full of achievements to all who are involved with the Hangar, both amazing people with whom I had the pleasure of sharing the stage, as the entire team that is behind each of the spectacle and especially to you, FANS! Without you it would not make sense to have a stage set. Congratulations to all! ”
Pedro Campos

06.SET.2012 – Ad aired on Roadie Crew Magazine of September 2012.
05.SET.2012 – Review of the DVD Haunted by your Ghosts in Ijuí/RS – Acoustic, but Plugged In and Live! is 9,0 at Roadie Crew Magazine – September 2012
The hangar had already surprised to release last year, the acoustic CD “Acoustic But Plugged In.” The surprise in this case has nothing to do with the competence of the band’s performance, something indisputable and known even by my grandmother, but to show the beauty of the melodies and harmonies of the quintet repertoire something that distortion and volume of Heavy metal does not always let on. Now is the time for the band release the DVD of the tour to promote the album, recorded in the city of Rio Grande do Sul Ijuí as the name of the video already shown. On its face, draws attention to the care the band surrounded himself to compose this release. There is much more here than just a show. Clips, “making ofs”, interviews (with some revealing details that will certainly draw more attention) and some bonuses that will make the celebration of the fans who love this kind of “gift”. But is the show that attracts more attention. And what a show! In the CD had been latent th competence and musicality of the keyboardist Fabio Laguna, in this DVD video that practically jumps in your lap. Moreover, the new vocalist André Leite, also confirms the rescue of talent and charisma that the band resented for some time. Moreover, Aquiles Priester, as always, stands out for creative performance and precise, even in a much smaller drum kit – of up to see the face behind the instrument! Every show is a highlight of the DVD, but “Haunted By Your Ghosts”, a song written especially for the acoustic design, is a real find.
05.SET.2012 – Interview with Aquiles Priester at Vitrola Verde blog.
It is with great honor that I interview one of the best drummers in the world. Aquiles Priester divides here some of his musical career in the bands of Paul Di ‘Anno, Angra, Hangar and also the test he did in the band Dream Theater. Learn more about the book, workshops, concerts and stages of Aquiles Priester, which is releasing with band Hangar the DVD “Haunted by your Ghosts in Ijuí/RS – Acoustic, but Plugged In and Live.”
The show is only beginning…

26.AGO.2012 – HANGAR – DVD release “Haunted By Your Ghosts In Ijuí/RS – Acoustic, But Plugged In And Live!”

André Leite (vocal)
Eduardo Martinez (acoustic guitar)
Fábio Laguna (keyboards and backing vocals)
Nando Mello (bass and backing vocals)
Aquiles Priester (drums and backing vocals)
It was supposed to be a simple shoot just to register the moment. But “simple” and “Hangar” are words that are rarely seen together in the same phrase. After all, besides their high-quality music, the band has become known for the detail that goes into all of their productions, be they records, gigs or, as now, video.
Therefore, following the release of the band’s first acoustic album, “Acoustic, But plugged In” (2011), the band went on tour throughout Brazil and decided to take the opportunity and shoot their first DVD at a gig that took place at the SESC theater in Ijuí, a city in the southern state of Rio Grande do Sul.
The basic set list is the same as that contained in the CD that originated the gig and shows a very tight band and, above all, a band happy to be recording their performance. No tension whatsoever is noted and that would be normal under these circumstances when a gig is being recorded thus allowing no room for mistakes. The self-confidence of André Leite (vocals), Eduardo Martinez (guitar), Fábio Laguna (keyboards), Nando Mello (bass), Aquiles Priester (drums) and guest Théo Vieira (guitar) is evident in each passage, in each change of tempo and in each vocalization. Incidentally, the fact that all musicians, with the exception of Martinez, collaborate with the backing vocals, adds a lot to Hangar’s music.
Besides the gig itself, there are an infinity of extras on the DVD such as interviews, a short documentary accompanying the production of the gig, two video clips and their respective “making of” besides a surprise song that completes the video and makes it a real collector’s item not only for Hangar fans but for all of those who appreciate and accompany Brazilian heavy metal.

23.JUL.2012 – Aquiles Priester’s interview in The Black Page website
“I’m always playing drums, even if only in my mind…”
Aquiles Priester
For many, Aquiles Priester was a name that became uber popular after the Dream Theater drum auditions. However, Aquiles has long been a superstar in his native Brazil, and the onetime corporate executive has fast become the world’s most popular clinician. Aquiles is as big a success story as they get, and it was truly an honor to interview the man they call the Octopus.

02.JAN.2012 – 2011 Retrospective
As I always do at the beginning of each year, here is my 2011 retrospective. I was really surprised with the quantity of good things that happened this year. The holidays are always useful to take stock of everything one has done during the year as well as to set new goals for the upcoming year. Once during a workshop a kid asked me, “How do you know if you’ll be successful when you’re doing something?” And I answered, “I really don’t know. I’m only sure that if I don’t do something, nothing will happen”. If you don’t believe it’s worth doing something, you’ll start out with the wrong foot because you’ll begin by not believing. Thus, if we don’t believe in ourselves, who will?
January:
• On January 1st, I received two important nominations for my career. I was among five nominated as best Prog Metal drummers of the world and my DVD, “The Infallible Reason of my Freak Drumming”, was also nominated as best instructional DVD by the highly regarded drum magazine, Modern Drummer USA.
• Elóy Casagrande and I took part of Paiste Day Los Angeles right after the Namm Show in Anaheim, California.
February:
• Hangar was able to begin musical activities for the first time in the band’s history before Carnival with workshops in Ribeirão Preto/São Paulo, Londrina/Paraná, Goiânia/Goiás and Anápolis/Goiás.

June:
• The result of the best of the year according to the magazine Modern Drummer USA came out and I was voted 5th best Prog Metal drummer of the world next to an enviable ranking: Neil Peart, Mike Portnoy, Gavin Harrison and Marco Minnemann. My DVD “The Infallible Reason of my Freak Drumming” came in 3rd as best instructional DVD of the world in 2011.
July:

• For the first time in the history of the company, Paiste released a signature cymbal of a Brazilian drummer. “PsychOctopus Giga Bell Ride 18” is released at the Expomusic in São Paulo. I go down in the history of the brand next to Nicko Mc Brain, Stewart Copeland and John Dolmayan who also have signature cymbals of the brand.
